I would prefer to use a visual class but with a DataSession. Session has it but not visual. Custom is visual but has not DataSession. Form is the only one that has both. But there is quite a memory hit and loading time with a form.
Yes, I do need INIT method. And I would prefer to ability to drop the BO on the form rather than instantiating it in INIT method of the UI form. So it is either a form or custom class instantiated in a session based .prg class. Not as I would like it to be but nothing is perfect, unfortunately.
