Kev,
Even though you have made up your mind, here are some things to consider:

1. How do you like to program? Do you like working with the class designer or would you rather work with prgram files? I like the productivity that the class designer affords. I can get to a specific method without having to wade through a ton of code. This will get easier with the improvements in the VFP 7 IDE.
2. Are you using source control? While VSS integrates fairly well with VFP, others may not. The use of programs files sometimes makes it easier to handle conflicts and the like.
3. Program files compile smaller than class library based classes. This may or may not be a factor in your decision.

Cheers.
