>IMHO there should be no need at all for NODEFAULT; if you redefine a method the new code executes and not the old one -- DODEFAULT() is there should you want the old functionality. For example, if I redefine KEYPRESS, then the original default code should not execute -- but it does unless you use NODEFAULT; weird! OK, enough of that; only Microsoft can change this behavior.

The VFP base control classes will fire their default events even if you override the event with your own code. The default behavior does a lot of things that you probably don't want to have to deal with in your code everytime you override an event. NODEFAULT allows you to override the base class behavior when you need to. For example there are times you don't want keypresses displayed. NODEFAULT gives you control of that.
