OK, the lightbulb has gone on. I had assumed (wishful thinking?) that with the right OO constructs, the logical and physical models become so close that there is no strain flipping back and forth. In other words, I can use the physical implementation to prototype the logical model. Back to Software Engineering 101 for me! Jaime You are subscribed to cfcdev.
