Greetings,
As the OP of this thread, I have decided to go with my "partname=" 
attribute rather than "device=".  There are too many ways the "device=" 
attribute is used or not used and I do not want to get in a bind at some 
future date when my use would conflict with someone else's use of it.  I 
thank all who responded to this thread.  They gave me several points of 
view which helped me make this decision.  It was John Doty's response 
with a solution to my attribute promotion problem that allowed me to use 
the "partname=" solution consistently.  An extra thanks from me, John.

Now, is there a way to get rid of the gsymcheck warning about the 
unknown "partname=" attribute or are the attribute names hardwired into 
gsymcheck?
Girvin Herr
