>(that is, the Load in the child class executes the code of its parent class, and the code in Grand-Child inhibits the execution of the code of its parent class, unless reinstated by a DODEFAULT()).

Hi Antonio,
I removed/commented the DODEFAULT() in your example above (which is the case that was I trying to describe in my initial message). That is, in my code I have (for testing purposes) the DODEFAULT(). And in this case I get the following results Displayed:
Load, Level 1, Base_form
Load, Level 1, Child_form
Load, Level 3, Grandchild_form
Which agrees with what Naoto said. That the Grandchild_form Load method should have DODEFAULT() in order to also file the code from the BASE_FORM LOAD method.
This is how I understand it should work and agrees with your example.

What confuses me is that I have a form in my app (CHILD_FORM) and it is based on another form (BASE_FORM) and in the CHILD_FORM load() there is a code but no DODEFAULT() and yet the code from the BASE_FORM Load() fires. I thought that since the CHILD_FORM Load() does not have DODEFAULT(), the code in BASE_FORM Load() should not fire. But it does. I will keep on checking what - I am sure - I am missing.
