David,
Butt in anytime! What you suggest works, but this opens up another can of worms. I use members and properties to access data fields in my business objects. If I had a way to get values from and save values to fields in the back end, I would not need to go through all this. At one point someone suggested I could use datasets to implement data access instead of the member/property scenario. What do you think?
TIA
Rex
