Einar,
No, the "red" was definitely from me. I've never used "blue". <s>
But, yeah, I have 2.0 loaded on my home desktop computer. I can test some stuff if you post code (although I won't be working home tomorrow, I'll be at the office, so I can't test anything 'til I get home).
I haven't used TabPages, so I doubt if I'd be able to see anything jumping out at me. But, if I get a chance later tonite (or maybe tomorrow night), I'll try it out on my 2.0 machine and see what I can see.

>If mamory serves me correctly I think it wasn't a "red" idea I got from you but rather a very nice "light blue" idea (or maybe it was from Kevin or maybe Kevin got it from you and I got it from Kevin <bg>) If that doesn't make any sense to you well then I totally missed the point LMAO now I am not making any sense to myself.

I am running into all sorts of sub-classing "issues" with 2.0 which is really frustrating because I only use subclassed stuff in my apps.>>
>>Wow, I guess I need to start messing with this more. I'm pretty sure you got the "red" idea from me and I sure hope I don't start running into "issues" ... what kind of "issues" have you encountered? I will be getting into 2.0 pretty heavily starting in April.
