Hmm..I must be missing something. Mis-used, how? I thought the point of polymorphism was that objects had the same interface so that they're easier to use (you're not relearning a new name for the same method in each new object), you can then easily swap objects (Abstract Factory, etc), etc.

Umm. Yeah, but what about products like Crystal Reports that let you add things like drill-downs. Very cool, and that's done in the "Preview" window.

Ideally you'll have both (readability and looks). I could crank out a "readable" report that had all the information needed, organized logically, but done in a ugly dot-matrix type font. I like to spend a little more time and make that same report "good looking". Something you wouldn't be embarrassed to give to a customer.
