Think of the subclasses as different levels:

Level 1: "C" and "K" classes - These classes are not to be changed without severe provocation. If you change these classes, you must keep track of the changes and reapply them with each new update from Kevin. Alternatively, you can contact Kevin to see if he will incorporate your changes into the framework.

Leval 2: Your "W" classes - These classes are for your changes to be used in all created apps. If your "A" classes are set up correctly, you can make changes to these classes to change behavior for all projects.

Level 3: The application "A" classes. These classes are application specific classes. Changing these classes affect just the application changed.

Between these three levels, you should be able to make all changes necessary.

>Level? Do you mean the same directory?

No I mean a directory on the same level as the COMMON30 directory. These classes need to be above the application directory in the directory tree since the will be used in all applications.

MereMortals comes with some "A" classlibs already defined. You would need to edit the contained classes and redefine the classes to use your "W" classes so that any changes to the "W" classes would be reflected in your application.

Only if you add the to your Generic project
