>Thanks for the pointer. Obviously, implementing "notes inheritance" is not trivial, though I have to agree with Jim, that VFP is not handling sufficiently the existence of code in the parent class. Referring to my original message, I think that in the instance method there should be at least something like "hey dude, there's code in the parent class method!"

That has been taken care of in VFP 7. The Property sheet now lists the last method that has code in it instead of just the [Default] notation.

Looks like it's time to upgrade. < s >
