Object Oriented Programming
The problem I had has been fixed in VFP7!. But they haven't "fixed" your problem. It's a fine line here between an object class and an object instance as others have said. When you drop the object onto the form you aren't really subclassing; even though I believe it is possible at design time to add new properties and methods to an object already on a form (don't ask me how). The form isn't really a subclass either, but it's "real" close. Wave-particle :-)

>>No they don't :-), but I agree with Dave now. See my other post. If you create a command button class, and in the click method of the class access a protected property or method of the same class at the same level then drop that button onto a form, the click method fails!
