We've spent a lot of time trying to come up with a better idea - and haven't. And I'm not nearly as good a programmer as Drew Speedie :-)

The overhead isn't really very much, considering that you put the limitation on # of buttons/columns in early.

>Thanks for responding. I actually thought about trying that. But I thought it might add needless overhead to all the occurances of my optiongroup class. I thought there must be an easy way to do it. But if the folks at Visual Maxframe do it that way, then there must not be an easy solution. I'll give it a try. Thanks again.
