	The ObjectKey is different from the ObjectId. The ObjectId is
used to find and Object within a POA and an ObjectKey contains the
information to find a POA within an ORB as well as the ObjectId.

	Thins of it like the ObjectId is a relative filename and the
ObjectKey is the full path for the Object.

Good Luck,
