Hi Craig..

FWIW, in VFP, inheritance on the UI *is* implementation inheritance. VB 7 is being labeled as a full blown OOP langauge. Microsoft never made this leap before. While I will not give into speculation, I did not see anything up on the website that stated inheritance on the UI was not supported....

And yes, I prefer aggregation to inheritance for the middle-tier layer. But, for those folks that have pegged a high degree of reliance on inheritance in the middle tier, well, this should make for some interesting times....

>OK...I'll stand up and be counted here. I didn't watch the web cast, but I have looked over the documents posted on the msdn web site. It appears that only VB classes will get implementation inheritance...in other words...business objects, not UI. Aren't you the one that said implementation inheritance isn't important for middle-tier business objects?
