This is where you have to decide what uniform means. Does uniform mean that you can use the "VERB" form of the "Operation" in a sensible sentence construct or does it mean that you can use it on anything that the application deals with? I think it's a bit short sighted to burden the more specific application with the baggage of a more general interface's VERBage. Gregg Wonderly
