Christof -

I have just discovered the 'mailmrge' foundation class and am trying to figure out how to use it in my app. Based on your statement below, which I think I agree with, I think I should redefine it to inherit from my 'objects.vcx', but it is already based on the automate.vcx, I think - 'automate.vcx' is in the mailmrge.classloc field. Also, the automate.vcx has references to registry.vcx. So, what do you think is the best way to incorporate the mailmrge class into my app?


Thanks so much,
Beth

>VFP 6 ships with a set of classes, called the FoxPro Foundation Classes, sort of a minimal framework. These classes have their own subclassed base classes, just like you would do it in your own development. The problems start when you try to use the Foundation Classses together wit your classes. Then you have to base class libraries that are sub classes from the native VFP classes. By redefining the foundation classes to inherit from your base class library, all of the foundation classes behave just like yours.
