i am aware of this option but DAO only returns a list of Strings and i prefer that to a list of beans. The reason is i am more interested in the role name than the role_id.
I plan to delete all the roles then put them back with a batchupdate. This allows the user to selected all the roles to get rid of in one shot -vs- one at a time. Also roles cannot be deleted if they are in use (USER_ROLES - {user_id, role_id}) Maybe i am wrong, and should change the DAO to return a List of LabelValueBeans --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
