With ZODB, I can create a folder with properties I like. Now I want to move this on to the file system with the CMF File System Directory View object. Is it possible for folders in FSDV to also have custom properties? If yes, how to do this?

No, AFAIK FSDV folders cannot have special properties right now. Other items such as FSFiles, FSPageTemplates etc can by using a .metadata file. Just recently I was faced with the same problem, I wanted to have a title showing for a FSFolder. I coded around that by associating the property using a .metadata file for the default document in the folder and changing some code that wanted to display the title to look at the default document title instead. jens --------------- Jens Vagelpohl jens@zetwork.com Software Engineer Zope - done medium rare Zetwork GmbH http://www.zetwork.com/
