Michael, This is a good question. I've thought about this methodology for years and, for the time being, I only put into the Form object what could be editable. All read only objects I stick directly into session scope. I do this because I take a narrow view of the Form object: the form represents form data. Any data not being sent back, will not go in the form. What do you think? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
