Barney, This is pretty much what I was wanting to do. I think your first post was the most helpful. I suppose I will implement it right now so that all Person objects are initialized when the getTeamMembers method is called. If/when the bottleneck arises, it shouldn't be much more difficult to implement the lazy loading scheme in the Person object itself.
Thanks for the suggestions, just wondering what other people did. Cedric >That is definitely true. But Cedric didn't say he was passing the >result of getTeamMembers to a display page.
