tiOPF does indeed have a lot to offer. After using it for almost 10 years, I still find new feature I didn't know about. :) As for the "no-brainer" comment. I guess its got to do with striking a balance between flexibility/power features and usability. I have seen many OPF frameworks that do everything for you, so from a usability point of view, it is very easy to use. But when you have a business rule/design problem that is slightly more complex, that framework cannot help you. This is where tiOPF shines! Obviously that doesn't mean tiOPF can't be made easier to learn and use. There are many things I have planned for tiOPF, unfortunately my time is very limited, so features/improvements get implemented slowly. -- Graeme ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Forrester Wave Report - Recovery time is now measured in hours and minutes not days.
