This is actually where ORM shines. You can do *crazy awesome* stuff with Hibernate. You can model your model in a variety of ways, that can make things really easy from a programming perspective. It's like learning a new language tho, and a lot of it can still end up being DB specific, so... eh. I bet very few people are using HBM files, where a lot of the magic happens. :Den -- Through shallow intellect, the mind becomes shallow, and one eats the fly, along with the sweets.
