True, we agree. If a house isn't built properly in the first place re-wiring with be inevitable. Nothing need be changed if it's constructed to spec from the ground up. I just don't see where your 're' idea gets into the mix. -Lew

I don't understand your second > comment. Nothing needs to be rewired if it's done properly in the first place. For sake of clarification, if you built your application with direct references to the data store (views/cursors, not directly to the table) - you can still have the business objects 'govern' or 'manage' access to the data store. If you choose to make the business objects micro-manage the data store you'd have to change said applications' forms to bind to the business objects - which I see as similar to re-wiring the house. :) [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
