>Can someone clue me in. When working in the form designer, you can add properties and methods to the form through the "form" menu pad option, but you can't do the same for objects contained within the form. You have to first save the contained objects to a class, get out of the form, then go through the class designer to add custom properties and methods. I'm just wondering how come custom properties and methods can't be added to contained objects through the form designer. Is it because it would foster bad design?

I don't know why it is designed that way, but you can also add a property with Object.AddProperty(), for example:
ThisForm.TxtClientCode.AddProperty("lChangedByUser", .F.)
This.AddProperty("lChangedByUser", .F.)
