>>I set the icon property in a form class I created. But for some reason the value in this does not get passed down to subclasses from this form class. The forms (SCXs) that are created from this form class also do not get this icon property value either? Any idea why this particular property value would not get passed down? Thanks in advance.

The quick'n'dirty trick is to create a standard (empty) form, add a formset, open your classlib in the form tools toolbar, drag your form class to the formset, remove the first form, remove the formset.

Another quick'n'dirty one is

x=createobject("yourformclass")
x.saveas("scxfilename")
