Hi !

Yes that's the trick I was never thinking so far.
Thanks this will save me a lot of Ctrl-c and Ctrl-v.

>Just copy that class from classlib1 to classlib 3. Then move classlib 2 out of reach for VFP development environment (for example, create new folder and move it there). Now open class for editing. VFP will ask "where is that class from classlib2?" or something like that and will allow you to open the correct file and select the correct class. After mapping all classes, change something (for example, change some property than revert that change), save that form class and close - this should fix all paths and mapping to classlib.

>>>When you redefine the class, properties and methods added to that class are not lost - you just change the base class. Well, if you meant code from base class - of course you will not have it because that base class is no longer a parent.

>>>BTW, you CANNOT create a class based on two other classes to mix properties and methods. Do do that, use only container with object in it or something like that.
