>>Before using code like this in more than a place or two, you should consider writing a custom form.DoSetAll (or something routine) that recognizes a container object in the controls collecitons and recurses back into itself to loop through the container's controls colleciton as well.

Forms which contained these container classes could know about those methods without violating OOP rules, right?
IMHO, yes, this is Ok. But your original loop won't always be enough; it won't account for nested pageframes or containters inside pageframes or vice-versa. This is really only generically solvable IMHO with a recursive routine.
