Sean,
I am using the object admin. Here's what I have been able to reproduct so far. I added a new object using the object admin for the cutom type. for the properiotes: <cfproperty ftseq="40" ftfieldset="Territories" name="territories" type="longchar" hint="Territories represented" required="yes" default="" ftlabel="Territories" fttype="category" ftalias="sp_territories" ftSelectMultiple="true" ftvalidation="required" /> <cfproperty ftseq="41" ftfieldset="Product Lines" name="productlines" type="longchar" hint="Product lines represented" required="yes" default="" ftlabel="Product Lines" fttype="category" ftalias="sp_product_lines" ftSelectMultiple="true" ftvalidation="required" /> I initialy checked off 2 "territories", leaving "product lines" blank. I checked the table and this record hada blank productlines column and 2 object IDs in the territories column as I should. I then went back to objectadmin and edited the record. I checked off 1 of the productlines categories. When I go back to the dtabase table, I still have 2 territories, HOWEVER, in the productlines column, I have 3 objectids, the firt two are the territories and the 3rd is the productline category. So I edit again, unchecking the productline, review DB and the column no longer has the productline object id, but retains the two territoties ids .. the territories column now has 4 objectids. seems like the fttype="category" is loading the entire tree and setting all the "cateogory" values, while only displaying only those at the property's "ftalias" Is this how its supposed to be working or a bug. It seems like I should be able to have a property/column levergage the category tree witout other columns that also use the tree interfereing.
