I guess what I meant was that ACCESS is the Get construct and ASSIGN is the Set construct. I don't really see the difference between using ASSIGN and creating your own Set method.

>Well....but in theory object 1 shouldn't even *query* object 2's property directly at all, although it could call an object2.GetProperty("propertyname")...so...essentially...Access and Assign are N/A in a true object environment because you should be using Set and Get style constructs to message between objects....see?
"It is an important and popular fact that things are not always what they seem. For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much -- the wheel, New York, wars and so on -- whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man -- for precisely the same reasons." - Douglas Adams
