Hi Helmut,

what you have to do is to explicitly allow the property mapper to create 
new sub objects in a certain action. That seems to be the biggest 
pitfall for many so far :)

Look into the older thread "Initialize create action for an unknown 
number of properties" there is a code example for this, but I think in 
the PropertyMapper Documentation is also something.

Cheers,
Christian
