Hi Alex,
One thing that I like to do, is load lookup tables with other biz obj's. Be careful which biz obj you place them in. For example, if you ever need to reuse one of those biz obj's, it would be nice if the biz obj also loaded it's supporting lookup tables. Conversely, if you need to reuse a biz obj, but don't need one of those lookup tables, it shouldn't be getting loaded with that biz obj.

>Updateable bizobjs:
>list_requests_bizobj - This is where I add new requests. It contains all the requests made by a single attorney for a particular case.

>Money_bizobj - (child of list_requests_bizobj) all the costs that a given request involves.

>Pending_coversheets - whenever a new request is entered, a record is added to this list so that when a user is done he can print a bunch of summary sheets for the requests he just entered.
>
>Pending_provider_letters - simmilar to above but lists what letters are pending to be printed to be sent to hospitals/doctors for the requests just entered.

>The other bizobjs, as I said, populate comboboxes.

>Now I'm about to add another bizobj which will contain a list of defendants in the lawsuit the current request belongs to in order to make sure that I'm not about to send a letter to one of the doctors being sued (malpractice lawsuits tend to sue the dr's, hosp, nurse, the mother, the dog, etc. - the one with the worst lawyer pays) ;-)
