Well, I'm going to prevail on one of the friendly and helpful folks here again (Ahem!;)...

I tried several creating two variations of the print_form sample class, one using a form class and the other a container class. Both included the common dialog. After saving and compiling the classes, I tried to rename the container class. I got the message "Object class is invalid for this container. Class containing OLE object is being ignored. Record #9". Then when I went to look at the class, the OLE object was gone. Now I don't know if the rename had anything to do with that, or was irrelevant to the error. Do you have any idea on this one?

One other quick question (I hope). One of the methods in the print_report class which I copied refers to the olecontainer as This.Parent.oleCommDlog.FileName <> "*.*" Would I replace the "oleCommDlog" with the default Ole control name (i.e. it seems to be OleControl1 for the ones whose properties I can view)?
