Hi Nadya and Jim,

>I would suggest ONLY using assign and/or access methods when they are required because they cause a performance hit on accessing and assigning to properties and if they aren't needed then there is no benefit of having them there.

I should add this; Nadya is talking about a custom property on a page, not a pageframe which makes an assign method more difficult. The pages have to be able to be removed and added at runtime like a normal PageFrame.

We could add a custom page class to the pageframe. THe pages are popuilated at deisgn time, then we have to switch at runtime. But the only way I see that (correct me if I'm wrong guys), is to save all the properties and objects with properties of the page, remove the page, add the custom class, and restore all the stuff from variables. That seems like alot of work when you can just settle on a method call.

I would also like to add this: THIS_ACCESS falls miserably short of its potential. I though it would work out, but is really useless (though I did some neat stuff with it in my OO Data class).
