Hi -

I am working on (struggling thru!) my first real abstract OOP project. I have a 'mediator' that controls 3 processes. Everything was humming along fine until I realized that in the last process (called Updator - where various tables and fields get updated) there are *multiple* items to be updated. These items are not necessarily in the same table, or even in the same *type* of table (could be Access, Oracle etc.) I could need to connect to these tables via VFP, ODBC, ADO etc.

I'm not sure design-wise what is the best way to generically handle this situation. At this point, my stumbling block is not the fact that there are different types of data that I am dealing with, but the fact that I have to go thru the update process MULTIPLE times. I'm not sure generically how to set this up.

I've been browsing thru the Design Patterns book and haven't had any real revelations yet.

Any advice?
TIA!
