hi Jeff,

Yes, make a class that derives from DB_DataObject and override the get()
method, like this:

function get($k = null, $v = null)
{
// call DB_DataObject get method to fetch the data
$success = parent::get($k, $v);

if ($success)
{
// do your special stuff
}

return $success;
}

You'll also need to change the "extends" and "extends_location"
properties in your DBDO ini file, or wherever you setup the
configuration.

eg
extends_location = DB_DataObject_Ex.php
extends = DB_DataObject_Ex

hth,
Rob
