<tt><font size=2>Mark,</font></tt>
<br>
<br><tt><font size=2>I know you have said that you are going to use the
deep nested structure but for anyone else who may be thinking of going
down this route we implemented this functionality before using a ZTABLE
with a Z business object.</font></tt>
<br>
<br><tt><font size=2>We created a Z business object with an attribute that
references our ZTABLE which was keyed with a request ID. We store the values
on the form in the ZTABLE as the form is passed around by the workflow
and then when the method in the ZOBJECT is called to create the material,
the ZTBALE is read and the values populated.</font></tt>
<br>
<br><tt><font size=2>We did experience some issues around change logging
on the form and running out of space on the ZTABLE but in the main this
issue worked well for us.</font></tt>
<br>
<br><tt><font size=2>Good Luck,</font></tt>
