David: We started our new shell with v15. Now on v16.3 as we continue creating it. The very first thing we built (Ok Adam built all our object code), was our object tools. He built in dot notation into all the tools. We were used to the power of ObjectTools. Then he built our Object Viewer. The

[JPR] Hi David, What I mean is just that I feel nothing obvious when manipulating Objects. Every single operation you can do on objects becomes not trivial at all, if you compare with variables 4D Developers are accustomed to use. Some examples : - Comparing objects: Will you compare structure

David: No magic. Just the content of the string/Obect in a variable on the form that you can scroll. It's quite "straightforward" in that it displays the same data from the Object but doesn't have the UI controls of the debugger. That would be *quite* nice. The work I've done to date with Objec
