How do I get access to a child table of a content type?

I am trying to get the property values of a child to my content type.

Content type: Bid
property name: planholderlist
this is a sys_table control

Thanks for any help you can give.

Try something like this (in Velocity)


   #set($planholders=$sys.item.getNodes("planholderlist"))
   <table border="1" class="plantable">
   #foreach($plan in $planholders)
       <tr class="plantablerow2">
          <td>$plan.getProperty("rx:holdername").String</td>
          <td>$plan.getProperty("rx:holderphone").String</td>
          <td>$plan.getProperty("rx:fax").String</td>
          ##more properties here as you need them 
       </tr>
    #end
    </table>

You didn’t say what the names of the properties are, so I’m guessing.
