>I just had a friendly conversation with one of the VB types here at work. I demoed one of my apps for him because he wanted to see the OOPS implementation in VFP. He was surpise to see how much of VFP was object oriented although he said it was still lacking some things to be completely consider to be OOP.

>Before he left, he suggested to me to create a customized object to hold all my procedures and functions. Ok, I thought about doing this when I first started on the app about 18 months ago but I didn't think it was that big of a deal. Was I wrong in thinking this?

Andy,
Packaging is an important deal and I would argue against this. If you package all your work into one big VCX, (if I understand what you/he is saying), it requires me to drag the entire file into my project just to use one function. So to do a "Hello World " + YourFunction(), I create a project that includes every possible procedure and function you have! I would much prefer to get only the code I need. Perhaps once and awhile I might agree to get more code for convenience sake, but in the main, I prefer small packages.
Charlie
