Hi, I wrote a class that creates an object and stores all demographic info into its properties.

Example:
accountInfo=createobject("demographic")
then on reports I refresh the object for every record and I put on the report:

accountInfo.nameE
accountInfo.nameY
accountInfo.dob
accountInfo.addressMultiLine
accountInfo.parentsName
Etc.

I find it very clean as opposed to using variables.
The real reason was cause some times I need in the same record, info for 2 different accounts. that's in a Partner report. We want to see all Demographic info for Partner 1 and all Demographic info for his Partner.
So I have in the running cursor 2 fields for partner1 ID and partner2 ID
and I instanciate 2 objects
accountInfo1=createobject("demographic")
accountInfo2=createobject("demographic")
and I use both objects simultaneously

Now Question:

I would like to store the Class Objects into gen fields before the report runs instead of calling it from the report.

Is there a way? What type of classes can be put in a gen field? OLE? whats that? how do i make such a class.

Thanks
