Hello, we are looking to find a way to add new fields to saved searches without having to go in and change the source code. Let me describe what we are thinking.

Let's say we have a routine that gets saved search fields and inserts them into a database for EDI transmission, or export to a data warehouse. So traditionally this will get coded like this:

                                CustomerClass cust = new CustomerClass();

                                cust.NsCompanyName = customer.basic.altName[0].searchValue;
                                cust.CustomerNsInternalID = customer.basic.internalId[0].searchValue.internalId;
                                cust.NsCustomerCode = "X";  // just a constant

What we are thinking is to store the property names and values in a database table and maintain the fields to look for there (again, do not have to alter the source code). The property names would go in like this:
