Thanks, I hadn't previously noticed the "formencode" part of the TurboGears stack. I like that it can be used to perform conversions not only in an HTML form context, but also in a database context. So, and please correct me if I'm wrong, I could probably also use "formencode" functionality in much the same way as a JavaBean "property editor"?! TIA George
