Hi!
Thanks. Well, it seems no way but use VCX most the time.

Instead of using ADD OBJECT in the class definition, use that for first-level containership and override the Init of those containers to add additional objects. Ex.
>define class MyGrid as Grid
>ColumnCount=2
>Procedure Column1.Init
> With THIS
> .RemoveObject("Header1")
> .NewObject("Header1","MyHeaderClass","MyHeaderClasslibrary")
> Endwith

>>>Vlad,
>>>The Class Browser is notorious for producing crap when dealing with containership issues. When doing this in the past, I have had to create the lowest container as a class and use ADD OBEJCT at the next container with the newly defined class. Keep doing this up the line. This may be a limitation of the ADD OBJECT construct, but I think (not sure) you can define all your methods using mulitple dot notation.

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs
It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
