That sounds exactly like our environment. We use OOP as much as possible as well, and we don't use "DAO" either. However, we don't pass use seperate arguments to methods, but rather pass a struct, e.g. addItem(Struct stItem) and that method passes it back. I guess you can kind of say this a simple "DAO/Bean".
