Hi, Mark.

What problem ddo you have writing your class as a PRG? My election for bizobjects has been Session Objects since they exists. Before that, we used our own custom class that was based in a line indeed.

Session objects are lighweight and give you the benefit of isolating your datasession. They are good as COM servers, too.

Actually we have a session subclass that represents our abstract classes, and another subclass level for the bizobjects. From that last we subclass the actual REAL ones (customer, product, and so on).

This give you a lot of flexibility.

I don't understand what do you mean with "getting the class visible in my class library". Of course, with a PRG based class you don't have it in the class toolbar, but you can instantiate it with CreateObject or AddObject.

My 2 pesos.
