I think I've discovered the *source* of my issues in these threads, but if there's a solution out there I'd appreciate knowing: Problem with @Id and non-null entities: http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=123799 Problem with accessing Map of entities: http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=123799 Basically, it appears if you want to have entities whose name on the page differs from the @Name annotation, you're out of luck. Even the @In(value="xxx") doesn't override this. I can get my page from the first link above to work if I use the same name as in the LenderBenefit @Name annotation. This pretty much precludes having multiple instances of the same entity type on a page. However, I've been assured one CAN have multiple instances...so how is this done? How do I override the @Name annotation, or do I drop it altogether? Many thanks in advance! Jon View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4106389#...
