Nigel,

Is it giving you a "objectclass is invalid for this container" error message ? If so, it is not possible to instantiate them directly this way. You could make a new class based on a form, put the subclassed control on it and instantiate the form (with the class on it) with CREATE OBJECT.

Another alternative is to use ADDOBJECT instead of CREATEOBJECT which enables you to instantiate it on a form directly.

Walter,


>That works on a form but not if you want to do CREATEOBJECT("SubClassedControl") - one of the classes I also need to subclass are used in this way.

>>>Does anybody know how to subclass an OCX. I want to subclass the MS Treeview control to see if I can reduce the memory required for loading it multiple times. I have been advised to subclass a control on a previous issue but never got around to trying it.
