It would, but I do not want to have to create a DE subclass for every one of my forms depending on what data each form needs. I was wanting to create a DE subclass that contains the code I normally use in all form DEs. Then have each form use that DE subclass, but still have the flexibility to add whatever data objects to the DE subclass in the Form Designer. Creating a DE subclass for each different form DE is a pain when you consider I would have to close the form designer, edit the DE subclass in the Class Browser, then go back to the Form Designer.
