+1 I think breaking the relationship between the account types (or templates) and the actual entries will make things much less convenient. Modifying an existing account type (or a template) is quite likely going to be something I would use, having to manually recreate or alter the fields on every existing entry of that type would not be pleasant. Searching and browsing by type, again also very useful. I would strongly lean towards keeping a relationship between the type and the entry. -- Devan Goodwin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://dgoodwin.dangerouslyinc.com
