How about building the pageframe with only the pages which are always there, and then conditionally adding the optional pages - until we get vfp8, you can subclass the page class in a .prg, and have it load the container with controls on first activate. Thus, your pageframe loads with the minimal number of pages, .newobject()s the applicable optional pages, and these pages load their content when activated. You'd need one class for loadable pages, and then subclass this for each of the pages you want.
