Hi Chris,

I don't think your proposal is a solution for the problem... hasProperty 
doesn't use acquisition, so you check only the current object for a 
property. The original poster wanted to check if a property was set in 
an aquired folder... sure, he can't rely on that 
hasattr(self,'propertyid') is a property [=> can be any aquired object].

Cheers, Maik
