A couple of points:

1. As a general rule I NEVER use any names VFP already uses. That practice WILL come back and bite you.

2. My personal preference is to use a prefix for custom properties/methods e.g. "MyApp". You would then create MyApp_Property1, MyApp_Method1, etc. I use this approach because I work with a commercial framework that already has tons of custom properties and methods, and this technique lets me easily find mine amongst all the others.
