Hi Barbara,

Sorry for jumping into this thread, but recently my colleague had the similar situation. She asked me to find out, why the method, she was adding, was not added. I found, that she accidentally used Formset. The question is: how to get rid of formset, if form was originally put in formset? Is it possible at all or she should recreate it? I could not think about a way but hacking scx, but may be there is a simpler method?


>I know that you can't rename components that are inherited from a container class. For example, if you have a pageframe class with 2 pages, and instantiate that, you can't rename page 1 or 2, but can rename additional pages if you increase the pagecount in the instance.

If you have anything set for a formset template, when you create a new form, you'll actually get a formset instead, and the form in that formset can't be renamed.

>>Recently my PC died and the 'Help' desk people reinstalled all my software. A few days later I realized that my ability to subclass forms was severely impaired due to the fact that now I cannot change the name property when creating new forms. Good if you have only one form in you application...bad if you need more than one. On inspection the name property is still listed as Public and in my base.vcx the class frm (on which all my forms are based) also has the name property disabled but it is still listed as public. I am reasonably sure this is not an issue of access rights. I am concerned this may be a liscensing issue, or it could be as simple as a checkbox somewhere that I have missed. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
