If your not going to use a gateway Object, I would put a method in your DAO to return a query for the master list. You could then create a bean and populate it though each record or just output the query. I tend to do a bit of both so I guess my apps are more OOish the straight OO. If your going to use a gateway CFC, the gateway holds all the methods the would return more than one row, as these cannot be returned to the caller in a bean.
Ok, sounds good. Can someone explain a little more on what a Gateway would be; what its purpose, a basic pseudo code example of how one might be constructed and used? Or a good link to a resource that would help with this? I've heard of Gateways many times in my reading, but have yet to see a clear example of one. -------------- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA --------- | 1 | | --------- Binary Soduko | | | --------- "C code.
