Hi Jim,

you can not make everybody happy. ::) I try to share my ideas, because I get the original form for free so I give my "improvements" back to the pool.

Never mind.

If answerd your mail, lets see what else we can do.

>>>Hey, thanks for the post. Sounds like you have a number of worthwhile features that could be incorporated into PEM Editor. I hope not to force any way of doing things on anybody, and to provide for as many different ways for using it as possible.
>>>
>>>First of all, I have indeed lost your "New" form that you sent last year. Can you re-send? I'd love to have a look.
>>>
>>>Some comments on your message:
>>>
>>>(1) PEM Editor now provides option to ignore _MemberData altogether. I think your suggestion of altering Global values is a great extension.
>>>
>>>(2) You were the person who indicated that the values entered for properties were being improperly converted (in many cases, not converted, but left as character). I have tried to fix this, and will make additional corrections if there are any data types not provided for.
>>>
>>>(3) You refer to the value editor not meeting your requirements. What are those requirements?
>>>
>>>(4) We already have planned an enhancement that will allow customization for setting default values for properties based on their names. A PRG will be provided that can then be modified to suit your own needs (this requires re-compiling the APP, of course)
>>>
>>>(5) As it happens, the "grid" part of PEM Editor and the "controls" part are in separate classes. As such, I don't think it should terribly hard to create a mini "New" form (although we have had no plans of doing so.)
>>>
>>>(6) You mention over-riding the type ... can you explain?
>>>
>>>I'd love to hear from you in more detail.
>>>
>>>BTW -- I use PEM Editor now as a replacement for both Property Window and Document View. Yes, there are some features missing ... it's not a complete replacement. Nonetheless, my use of those two has dramatically declined.
