Perhaps I'm missing something, Erica, but if you are dealing with XWiki users, what not simply modify XWiki.XWikiUsers class to host the new information you need to store? You must be careful when you updated this class at XWiki update time! Or create that new dbClass to store new data (position and alias) and instantiate it (add an instance of that class) to each XWiki user. I know this is not what you are asking for, but I'm trying to understand what do you want to do. I've tried this Database List properties type in a XE 2.6-SNAPSHOT.31892 and it seems to work a expected. When you talk about "result in the table", what table are you talking about?

I've trying to get it working to no avail. It seems that it allows to assign a value of a property by selecting a document from a tree of documents. But I'm not able to get it working. Could you try with, let's say, a dbTree based on XWiki.XWikiUsers? Thanks! Just my two cents! Ricardo -- Ricardo RodrÃguez CTO eBioTIC.
