Hey Rex.

Making the changes in the generic project dawned on me just minutes after posting my inquiry <s>

Thanks for the help!

Paul,

First, the classes need not be subclassed for each project. If you make the changes to the Generic project, when you run QStart.App, your new application will have all the changes.

Personally, I subclass the classes to files beginning with an "R" and place these in a file on the same level as the COMMON30 directory (I call it RCOMMON30. I then subclass the "R" classes to "A" classes and have these classlibs in the application directory. If the "A" class already exists, I redefine it from the "C" or "K" class to my "R" class. You will also need to add the "RCOMMON" directories to your search path and add the "R" classes to your project.

I thought about writing a program to do this, but I doubt I will need every class (or all the recommended ones in topic) in every project/application I develop with MM (perhaps I will).
