Hi Rick<BR>
<BR>
Thanks for the quick reply.<BR>
<BR>
I created the object reference using the wizard for SYSTEM method GENERICINSTANTIATE, as you stated below.<BR>
This gives the object reference in my workflow container.<BR>
<BR>
I also gave it some 'initial values' in the workflow container for the key as well. However it does not get instantiated. I tried to assign it values in a container operation but the system doesn't allow that.<BR>
<BR>
On my next step I tried to read other attributes, but it gives blank values, and when I check the container in the test tool it states its not instantiated.<BR>
<BR>
Any ideas why its not instantiated?<BR>
<BR>
Thanks<BR>
Sunni<BR>
