DB_DataObject: Defaults? ENUM sets?

I was wondering if DB_DataObject used the default values of the database in anyway. For example if I created a new "blank" object based on a table, and in that the table definition the default value for column "Gender" was "M" would my new object have that value? Also, if a column is of type enum, is there any way to get an array of the possible allowed values? ~ Mike ----- Mike Zornek Web Designer, Media Developer, Programmer and Geek Personal site: <http://MikeZornek.com> New Project: <http://WebDevWiki.com>
