IMO, we should fix the problem instead. The reserved words are effectively every single property or method in the bizobj. Our code should first try to get the value from the record, and only if the field isn't found should we try to resolve a property or method reference. I use 'name' as a field name all the time, but never got hung up on this because of case-sensitivity. -- pkm ~ http://paulmcnett.com _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-dev
