I would do this as follows:
Click on File ->New (in the VFP menu)
Select the option Class en click on button New file
You will be selected with a window “New Class”
In first textbox you give cntDMR for Class Name
Your click on the … button in the “Based on” line.
This will open a getfile() prompt which will be restricted to Class Library.
Now find and locate your class library common_libs.vcx when you have selected that, there will be listed, in the right panel. a list of all the classes in this selected library. Select in this case the class cntMRB
Click on open button in the getfile prompt and you will be returned to the window “New Class”
Now you can either store your cntDMR class in the common_libs.vcx or select an other or new class by clicking on the … button in the Store in line.
When done you can start making additional modifications to your just newly created cmdDMR class. Open the library etc . etc.
