    Greets! Neat product. I'm having a newb issue which I'm hopeful someone can help
    with. Here is the relevant layout: I have 2 tables (PARTY and CASE) and a third
    lookup table which maps the many-to-many (PARTY_CASE_LINK) - since each party
    can belong to 0 or more cases and each case can include 1 or more parties.

    PARTY PARTY_CASE_LINK CASE
    ____________________ ____________________ ____________________
    id party_id id
    firm case_id foo
    foo .. bar

    I want to start my lookup by loading a party by criteria and being able to get
    to all of the cases for that party. I have the relationships onships setup in
    the modeler correctly (me thinks) -- since i am able to get a List<Party> and
    from there I can use the relationships to get List<PartyCases> via
    getPartyCases() and from there get List<Case> via getCases() -- works like a
    charm!

    I want to avoid an N+1 lookup, so I'm **attempting** to use addPrefetch to my
    inial PARTY lookup. That's where it croaks.

    I am also using FetchLimit and FetchOffset (not that I think it should matter,
    but in full discolsure)

    Expression qualifier = ExpressionFactory.matchExp(Party.FIRM_PROPERTY, firm);
    SelectQuery selectQuery = new SelectQuery(Party.class, qualifier);
                            
    selectQuery.addOrdering(rs.getSort(), rs.isSortAscending());
    selectQuery.setFetchLimit(rs.getPageSize());
    selectQuery.setFetchOffset(rs.getStartIndex());
                            
    selectQuery.addPrefetch("partyCases");
                            
    paritesAttachedToFirm = (List<Party>) dataContext.performQuery(selectQuery);

    What else can I tell you to help here:

    In the modeler I have the relationship from PARTY to PARTY_CASE_LINK called
    "partyCases" and it's "To Many" The reverse relationship is called "parties"

    Thanks for your thoughts and advise.
