>>>Not immediately. But you can make a form builder that (between other features), let you drop a form, and execute any post-drop event given the class you choose.

Perhaps is easier to get accustomed to always use such a builder (instead of going to the toolbar, switch class libraries, select and drop the one you need, then restoring the toolbar) to drop SOME kind of classes.

Thanks. I'll let you know if I find out anything useful.
