Hi Ted, With the caveat that I don’t use Oracle (though that’s probably incidental)...

One place, you know where it is, you can potentially override it when you need to (for example, with Properties.dev and Properties.ted). > Let’s think.

It’s hard to say what was going on here. > Should I just call this voodoo and move on? I’d call it voodoo, but if it was me I would press on until I had the connection dictionary out of the model and into Properties, especially if, as you say, the model is in a framework. (How can you set the connection dictionary in the framework and be confident that will be appropriate for every app that uses the framework?) -- Paul Hoadley http://logicsquad.net/ _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
