>>>I have a container class in a VCX, where I added a combobox and a label to the container, and on the combobox I have added code to several of its methods. Now, is there any way I can extract that combobox out of the container, and make it a free-standing class in the vcx, so I can use it outside of the container?

I meant copy from the container class when you open this class to modify. Is it what you have been trying?
