A class form is when you create a form inside a class library. For example, issue the following command:

CREATE CLASS MyForm OF MyClassLib AS FORM

VFP will create a new class based on VFP's form base class.

An advantage of "form classes" over "regular forms" is that -since they are classes- you can inherit other forms from this "form class."

For example, let's say that you want to have all your forms with blue background. Your could create a "form class", set the background to blue. Then, everytime you need a form, you create it based on this form class rather than the VFP form and the blue color will be there.

To launch a form-class you can use the following commands:

oForm = NEWOBJECT( 'MyForm', 'MyClassLib' )
oForm.Show()
