It wasn't meant as an insult- only that when this question is asked here, the reason behind it is usually that the developer is trying to tackle a problem from the wrong angle. I said generally to be sure that you didn't think I meant ALWAYS. Sorry if I came across as critical.

>The only reason we are trying to do this is as a developer aid. This is a large project that consists of many forms and controls that are sub-classed by a number of levels. For the framework to operate successfully it is required that developers put DODEFAULT code in certain methods - and we felt it would aid the QA process to issue a warning at runtime if this code was omitted.

Well why didn't you say so? :-) Have you seen Ken Levy's Supercls utility? I don't think it does exactly what you are looking for, but it comes with source code that might give you some pointers.

You can use the vcx and look at the code you need to see.
