Jim, in fact the class browser in VFP5.0 does have/makes this "Edit Parent Class code" toolbar active - VFP does not have other features SuperCls (in its recent version) adds also for some reason this toolbar only apears when you run the classbrowser and not fr example when you fire the form designer (unless naturally you have the class browser open in the backgroud (s)) Arnon >Barbara, >While I have no doubt that SuperCls is terrific, *THIS* deficiency of VFP's >current packaging is definitely a good candidate for the WISH LIST. > >I have no idea WHY the Class Browser was designed the way it is, but it is >rather useless in its current form. > >Cheers, >Jim N > >>>I have been trying to understand the Codebook framework by , among other >things, going through the class libraries using the class browser. >>> >>>The class browser shows all Properties and Methods specifically added . >But the Event ( event code ) are not listed.
