I didn't mean for the comment to come off as derogatory toward tiOPF, I simply meant that what I wanted to do was expected to be very rudimentary - sorry about that. I think my down-fall was using AutoMapping. In retrospect, how is tiOPF to know that if the object's ParentOID = its own OID it is a root element? I was trying to use the one-many example but there the root element for telephone numbers is always the client. I'll get GTIOPFManager.Read(FFamTreeObj); working. Thanks for all your help. >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. I am still hoping to be of some assistance in this but time will tell.
