I just want to ask a couple quick questions... First, when using the AttributeProvider class you are pretty much required to subclass it to add methods for altering the values of the attributes. Basically I want to be sure I'm not missing something criticle as there don't seem to be any methods on the default dataskin class for this (as there are for propertysheets)... and it seems like there should be. Related to this is dealing with typing information like PropertySheets used (via the _properties attribute). Wouldn't make sense to keep the AttributeProvider consistent with this... instead of the simple Attributes list? Seems like the type information and other meta information would as useful for handling attributes on the dataskin as for propertysheets. -- John Eikenberry [jae@zhar.net - http://zhar.net] ______________________________________________________________ "A society that will trade a little liberty for a little order will deserve neither and lose both." --B.
