	  # The ValueListItem object represents an item in a Filemaker value list.
	  # ValueListItem is subclassed from String, so you can use it just like
	  # a string. It does have three additional methods to help separate Filemaker *value*
	  # vs *display* items.
	  #
	  # Getting values vs display items:
	  #
	  # * *#value* the value list item value
	  #
	  # * *#display* is the value list item display. It could be the same
	  #   as +value+, or it could be the "second field", if that option is checked in Filemaker
	  #
	  # * *#value_list_name* is the name of the parent value list, if any
	  class ValueListItem < String
	  	# TODO: re-instate saving of value_list_name.
	    attr_reader :value, :display, :value_list_name
	    
			#   def initialize(value, display, value_list_name)
			#     @value_list_name = value_list_name
			#     @value					 = value.to_s
			#     @display				 = display.to_s
			#     self.replace @value
