No, I think I have it somewhere. Works for forms and classes.

Ok, my (maybe) last question has to do with time to start the form. In reading what someone else just posted, it increases the load time to have all that stuff on one form, but it sounds like what you are saying is that by having them as classes, the instantiation of the form would be reasonably quick. Is that true? I didn't really understand what you meant by delayed instantiation though.
