thats what I was afraid you were going to say... but ... I was reading some other posts tonight. and found mention of the VCX editor, its sort of hacking, but with a safety belt....

I tried it. blew out a few controls, saw the C00000005 error.. then... like magic. I see the light. it started working.

Considering how simple it is to mess up a vcx file withoug knowing what you are doing.... I think Ill stick with that vcx editor... that thing works.

Thank you.

>>in my class forms. I have various labels, text boxes controls etc. (like everyone) but some time or another, I started with forms, and before I knew what I was doing, some of my lables, were based on the default class libs, not my subclassed, - new class lib.

>>I have been able to convert all the forms, to read from my new class lib. however, there are some left over controls, which need to be converted, however as I am finidng out, you can redefine, forms, but not controls already placed on forms....
