Object orientation 101 - lesson needed

Hi

Please excuse me for asking such a basic question. I feel I should know this but can't figure it out.

The following "onchange" function receives the "partner_id" and uses it to extract the partner address details on the "Sales Order" screen.

Code:

onchange_partner_id(self, cr, uid, ids, part)
....
    addr = self.pool.get('res.partner').address_get(cr, uid, [part], ['default'])
    address_obj = self.pool.get('res.partner.address')
    street = address_obj.get_street(cr, uid, addr['default'])

There are many examples of this where the fields are "many2one".

I however just want to access a simple boolean variable that is part of the res.partner object.

Code:

class res_partner(osv.osv):
    _name = 'res.partner'
    _inherit = 'res.partner'
    _columns = {
        'abc': fields.boolean('ABC'),
    }
res_partner()

What is the simplest way to do that in the context of the onchange_partner_id function?

Any pointer would be greatly appreciated

Thanks
O.

    boolean = partner.abc
