Fabian: Nice! That rule did the trick. Thanks for responding - kept me from having to dig more. So, I have two rules now that look like:
100 : smartRelationship.destinationEntity.name = ‘Product' => keyWhenRelationship = "d2wProductDisplayWhenRelationship" [com.webobjects.directtoweb.Assignment] 100 : smartRelationship.destinationEntity.name = ‘Product' => searchKey = “productNumber" [com.webobjects.directtoweb.Assignment] Where ‘d2wProductDisplayWhenRelationship’ is a method that returns a nice user-readable string for the objects in the search results. Thanks for the assist!
