Vlad,

Thanks. This is a good idea. That is where I was going if in fact you couldn't add the method code at run time. Now that I know you can't, I will do it the way you have suggested.

>>I am creating a set of text boxes, in a container, at run time, with addobject(), based on the values in a table. I am using the textbox base class as the class on which to base the text boxes. (maybe I shouldn't ?). But ideally I want each text box to have it's own custom valid method. I guess if I based it on a different subclass of textbox, it could inherit the valid, this would be better, but still might not do the trick.
