An article PRB: ADD OBJECT Syntax Error from Browser Code Snippet mskb #Q156506 explains why code generated by Class Browser may generates errors when it's run. VFP doesn't support DEFINE CLASS in DEFINE CLASS so you cannot define and add objects at the same time.

>I have question about DEFINE CLASS in DEFINE CLASS.

>I have seen this code in “Special Edition Using Visual FoxPro 6.0”.
>It is Listing 15.2. in Chapter 15.

>This code is exported from Class Browser.
>I am confused how in this code exist DEFINE CLASS in DEFINE CLASS?
