>This may seem strange but I have run into a situation where I want to do this: Can I create a new object on a screen from an object already on the screen? I have a form with a combobox and an editbox (plus labels, buttons, etc). Based on the value selected in the combobox, a second editbox may need to be added to the screen below the first one. The form size will change to accomodate the new editbox. The first editbox was created at design time but will have certain properties modified at runtime. The second editbox needs to have all the same event and method code that is in the first editbox. Of course when the second object gets created the code creating it will change certain properties, etc., such as the name, controlsource, etc. However, the first editbox may have certain properties already set that I want to keep for the new object.

You can use the object's ADDOBJECT() method.
