Greetings,
	I have a few basic questions about the RTTI facility and I/O
via the TTree class.  They are:

1) If you have a collection of objects that is too large to keep in
memory is the TTree the only/best collection class to use?

2) Can you change the size of an object in the TTree (by adding a new 
member into a container within the object) without re-building the
tree?

3) Can you insert a new object into the middle of a TTree without
re-building the tree?

4) I want to use a TMap to associate a TString to a class type and
then create new objects of a particular type based on a given TString?
I've looked at the RTTI facility but am unclear on exactly how this
would work.

					Thanks,
					Jim White
