The VB folks have a very different view of inheritance than the VFP folks - mostly due to a lack of experience. The way inheritance is *simulated* in VB - makes for a maintenance nightmare. No question that inheritance is often over-used and abused. But nonetheless, it is still valuable and VB would do well to have it. After all, as in VFP, you could simply choose not to use it.

Thank you for the kind words... :)
