Steve,

I prefer to do everything I can in the designers. The only code classes I have are a couple that can't be created in the class designer. I just find it much easier to drag a class out of the project when I want to use it and not have to search large proc file(s) to find stuff.

And you and your boss do realize that COPY/PASTE programming is very, VERY, VERY bad. You should be subclassing instead.

>I prefer the visual route, he prefers to define his classes manually. My question is, what are the pro's and con's either approach?
