>I have some navigation buttons (first,next,previous,last) that are in their own class so I can use them on my forms. They have standard code in them at the class level to move the record pointer accordingly. My question is can I add additional code for individual buttons on my forms which executes after the "base" code from the class definition or do I have write the complete code for each button?? (see my example below)

Hi Mandy,

What you need to use is the scope resolution operator (::) like so:

Navbtns::NextBtn.Click && runs the NextBtn.Click method of the Navbtns class

{your additional code follows

You can place the line Navbtns::NextBtn.Click anywhere in the method you want ie:

{your own code first}
Navbtns::NextBtn.Click
{more of your code after}
