Thanks, but I'm aware of the Zcatalog section in the Zope book. I got the ZCatalog perfectly working with my ZClasses. However I'm building the next generation of our Zope based cms entirely with external products, leaving ZClasses behind. Documention including the developpers guide isn't any helpfull regarding the Zcatalog in this respect.
I have a product wich has a dictionary of dictionaries (items) for storing data, including text data. One of the items fields is tekst (text). Of course I can instruct the Zcatalog to catalog this product. But it won't find the 'tekst' object (or any other) in the object in while creating indexes.
Define an accessor method 'getTekst(self)' which returns the value you want, then create an index/metadata-column for that function 'getTekst'. Alec Mitchell
