Hi Mark,
>Can the parent call overridden child methods?
Yes. Remember, that was only a basic example. :) YOu can for example store the name of the class (IOW, the PRG file name) in a Class property and then use something like (That's my first attempt to use the PRE tag :) ):
lcClass = toThis[ccClass]
&lcClass(@toThis,"method",....)

I did several times...

But not for turninf FP++ into FP code. :)

I still think it's practical possible, not for an entire application, but for parts of it. :)
