VB has some great features that makes it nice for building OO apps. Like RaiseEvent, typing, early binding and multiple interfaces. But trying to get inheritance is painful. (Using hooks is not inheritance ... dBase for DOS can implement hooks.) Hopefully VB7 will silence the laughter when you mention 'VB inheritance' to developers using other OO languages.

>Yes, but what if you wanted some basic code to execute in the ActiveX control and in some specialized code the user control for the GotFocus() event? I guess you can acheive this behaviour by using hooks, but it's ugly.
