We know some STD. properties like displayname, contentlenght etc, they should come in List Box. If other user have added their properties, they should also come in  the List Box. May be some users made property with same name. But In List Box Property names should come only one time no duplicate means (Unique).

Hi Aslam,

let me see if I get your question :
you have a property named displayname in a namespace that's not the
default, let's say FOO. Then, in you r application, you have a listbox
that lists all the properties without showing the namespace, hence
displayname would be duplicated. What you need is that your
application shows only one displayname, the one that refers to FOO.

If I get your point :
you need to filter the properties after the DASL query ( I don't rekon
it is possible to creeate a query that filters on namespaces but I may
be wrong here ) .

Question : what should happen if there are three or more instances of
displayname and different namespaces ?
