Hmmm

The preceding codelisting docbook text for this is

1.   setMultiValued("AccountOpen");

This defines meta data for the field called "AccountOpen" is
a multi-valued.

Line 3 was wrong in the next codelisting. It should not
have been fieldNames.equals("Account Active").


1.   public Vector getValidValues(String fieldName)
           throws DBException {
2.
3.     if (fieldName.equals("AccountOpen")) {
4.       Vector myValues = newVector();
5.       myValues.addElement(new  ValidValue("Y", "Yes"));
6.       myValues.addElement(new  ValidValue("N", "No"));
7.       return myValues;
8.     }
9.     return super.getValidValues(fieldName);
10.  }

BTW: I am catching up on my email, so I am a week behind now.
