Hi all,

For legacy reasons, I can't re-do the database, but some fields are stored as char fields as '1', '0', 'Y', or 'N' for essentially a boolean field.

How do I remap a field to be boolean instead, and use all non '1'/'Y'/'y' values as false?

The only option I see is to use LLBLGen Pro to generate base classes, and descend, overriding the virtual properties. Is this the expected way to do such a thing? If so, the problem with this is you cannot change the datatype of a property.

As a side note, this is an Oracle 9i database.

Looking forward to your reply,

John

At the moment, please keep the original values. In the upgrade currently in development, type conversions will be added which allow you to map a given db type to a given .net type as long as there's a conversion routine available, for example CHAR(1) <-> bool
