  Hi,
 I'd like to change the signatures  DAB.getProperty() methods. Right
 now they are:
     String getProperty(String documentName, String className, int
 objectNumber, String propertyName) throws Exception;
     String getProperty(String documentName, String className, String
 propertyName) throws Exception;
     String getProperty(String documentName, String propertyName)
 throws Exception;
 I'd like to change them to:
     Object getProperty(String documentName, String className, int
 objectNumber, String propertyName);
     Object getProperty(String documentName, String className, String
 propertyName);
     Object getProperty(String documentName, String propertyName);
 I have no idea why they currently return Strings and not Objects and
 why they are declared to throw an exception when they catch all
 exceptions and instead return null when an error occurs... 
 What types of objects
can these methods return, besides String? 
 Lists, numbers (float, int, long, etc), String, etc

  Thanks,
 Marius
