You can use the PARENTS variable.
so if you have a folder which contains two DTML Documents A and B then you can access B's properties from A by: <!--# var "PARENTS[0].B.name"--> PARENTS[1] will return the folder or containing object one level up and PARENTS[-1] will return the top most Folder.
Thanks for your help, Pavlos. I found another way. Instead of writing: <!--#var expr="_['sub-document'].author"--> I wrote this, and it worked fine: <!--#var expr="_.getitem('sub-document').author"--> I found a way, but I don't understand why the first syntax worked fine with Folders and fails with DTML Documents. If anyone would like to clarify the semantic difference between _['sub-document'] and _.getitem('sub-document'), I would be even happier. By the way, Pavlo's site http://www.gaaros.com:9673/ is useful! []s Luciano
