I see it the other way around, I do not think is the class's fault, but VFP IDE. With a good editor, you can argue that your class can become "Visual", not matter if is still a PRG. Imagine, for a very simple example, that you were able to open code snippets from the DocumentView, I mean, if we could open a prg, open DocumentView, and then right-click on any method definition and open a new editor with just that method, and then being able to have any number of this "snippets" open it would be a great improvement. Of course it should be a 2 way editor too, any changes in the PRG should refresh the snippets and any change on any snippet should refresh the PRG
