What do you mean 'static'? If it never changes, why do you model it? >What I want to do is around every 5 minutes, update the timeInterval >to be consistent with the current time.

But is there a more efficient way to do this? How many is "large"? If you need to change them all, then you need to change them all (ie you'll have to enumerate them all). Have you observed a performance problem because of this? -- ____________________________________________________________ Sean McBride, B.
