Hi tbee,

I've only seen bits and pieces of this issue scattered through a  
dozen emails. I understand vaguely that you're trying to separate the  
persistent field definition from the behavior, but can't really  
understand how you're trying to do it.

Would it be possible for you to post a complete (simple) example that  
shows what you are trying to do, including both the classes and the  
database schema, for both sides of the relationship.

Thanks,

Craig
