Question about Deep Loaded Collections

How can I tell whether or not an object has had its collection deep-loaded?  If I query the <Entity>Collection properties' Count field, it will yield the same result of 0 whether I shallow-loaded it, or whether I deep-loaded it and it indeed has no children.
 

Hi,

Did you manage with this?  I also need to deep load children but I need to sort them and bring back only active children.  If you have had something similar let me know please.

Brendan,

I was not able to find a good way to handle this, nor did I receive any other response other than your follow-up question.   Sorry I couldn't be of further help.

Hi, I would be very interested about a solution for that too...

Any comment will be welcome !

Mike.
