Hi Charlie,

"add as many as is ever needed..." Now how would one determine that?? Do I project company growth over the next X years and add accordingly? Seems like a lot of bloat to me... or am I misreading you here?

What kind of determination do you use in UserModified()? Let's say I crank through 5 or 10 items - oops, number 3 was a boo boo - I'll just blank out the product id field. Do you throw the entire record away? Just looking for other methods of how to handle such things and to what extent you read your user's minds :-)
