Why can't you? If your OC (which I assume is assigned to a variable somewhere
(not in Record!)) has records in it, you can call methods exactly as you
describe.
That is, if
record familyname printNl
works, and
(mylist at: 1)
returns the same object that record refers to,
why wouldn't
(mylist at: 1) familyname printNl
work? Perhaps I'm missing something...
