of objects?

Thanks for the info :)

Yes... an Object loop (i.e. <@OBJECTS>) is for when an Object returns a
'collection' (which is a VB term, I think, but probably still relevant
here)
of other Objects

For example, the code below is from my recently-posted FileSystem COM
object
example:

<@ASSIGN local$Files <@CALLMETHOD local$Root METHOD="Files()"
METHODTYPE="GET">>
<@OBJECTS OBJECT=local$Files ITEMVAR=local$File>
  <@CALLMETHOD local$File METHOD="Name()" METHODTYPE="GET">
</@OBJECTS>

Craig,

I would recommend writing the method to accept an array of IDs as input,
then loop through those and generate your reports. If you put the loop
in
your taf file you incur the extra overhead of calling the method 50
times.
It's a normal for loop you need, not an object loop.

I have a TCF that takes one parameter - an ID - and then
does a bunch of dbms stuff and then returns an HTML report
based on that ID.

I have only had to prepare the report for one ID at a time
so this was never an issue,  but now I need to do the same
thing for say an array of 50 IDs.

So, my questions is, what is the most appropriate way of
doing this? Should I just set up a normal FOR LOOP and
execute the TCF for each row in the array and let the HTML
accumulate.

Or is this what an OBJECT LOOP is for? I've never used that
action before and am not sure I completely get what it is
asking for.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Craig
