What do you mean exactly by "derived properties"? Are they transient? Are they in your xcdatamodel? In any case, I believe your problem is that you can only fetch against properties that are in the persistent store ie in your xcdatamodel and not transient. -- ____________________________________________________________ Sean McBride, B.
