Kevin,

It still bothers me that cDataEnvironment is not a visual class. I was wondering... Instead of subclassing Dataenvironment to make cdataenvironment, how about if you coded it as a wrapper instead... redefine cdataenvironment as custom or line or label... create all the properties and methods that DataEnvironment has... then, in the init of cDataEnvironment, instantiate DataEnv... all code will call that class instead of dodefault or dataenvironment:: ?

Is there any reason this will not work? I think you can/should do the same with cCursor and cReleation. And, is there a reason cFreeTAbleCursor doesn't inheriet from cCursor?

Anyway, just though it would be simpler if we could use the visual tools to edit these classes.. while the builder is nice, it is a pain to have to use that or VCXEditor to have to look at code.

Thanks,
BOb
