Hello John, thanks for your help on my "negative groups" question. I used the manager method as you suggested and it is working fine now! But as you might have guessed by now I ran into a new problem. (By the way, if I am asking too many questions just stop me. Then I will only ask again when I am totally lost).
I would like to copy objects from a default record/object. I tried it with something like: use MyClass; use Clone qw(clone); my $obj = MyClass->new(nr=>1)->load; my $obj2 = clone($obj); $obj2->id(undef); $obj2->price($a_changed_value); $obj2->save; but got an error message: Can't call disconnect method on handle DBI::db=HASH(0x24347d8) after take_imp_data() at C:/Perl/site/lib/Rose/DB.pm line 623. I found a hint in the docs that inheritance would make it easy to write a "copy" method for all classes but no hint how to do it. There must be a generic way to copy RDBOs otherwise such an inherited method couldn't work. Performance is also an issue because I want to copy whole sets of related records at a time and I fear that a home grown solution I could come up with myself (copy every record field for field) would be quite slow.
