Hi Phil Thank you for your answer. Unfortunately it still doesn't work. The error I get is: Error Type: Attribute Error ErrorValue: PropertyName my code is: <dtml-in "objectValues(['myZClassObject'])"> <dtml-var "PARENTS[0].Property.Name"> </dtml-in> I controlled the spelling severeltimes and I also checked that the PARENTS[0] , has such a property. If I make a <dtml-let xx=PropertyName></dtml-let> around the dtml-in, then I can work around this problem, but that's not really a nice style ... So if you have another suggestion, you will be wellcome. But anyway thanks a lot for the hint you gave me.

If it's a property then you don't need the ():

<dtml-var "PARENTS[0].propertyName">

Hi

Is there anybody who could give me a hint, how I access a Property-Value of a parent object, when my current object has a own property with the same name.

Is there something like <dtml-var "PARENTS[0].propertyName()">

... well the above hasen't worked ... and some other experiments ended in a crash either ... ;)

Thanks a lot in advance Stefan Mallepell
