Paul Ramirez	Friday 26 September 2003 8:56:21 am Can someone explain to me how to use fetch in conjunction with attributes that are specific to a custom content object I have created? For instance, I have created a Story class which is much like an Article but has a field to capture the owner and the creation date. I want to fecth the 4 most recently created articles by a particular owner that have been published. I see that I have access to the main content attributes in the database through the fetch command but I need to filter on these other attributes that are part of my custom content class. Can I even do this with ezp? I am currently using ezp 3.0 but I would not be opposed to upgrading to 3.2 if it provides this sort of functionality. Thanks, in advance for any help or links anyone can provide. Thanks, Paul Ramirez
