Better than fiddling with your VFP default options is to use the TOOLBOX
TOOLS, TOOLBOX will open the toolbox.
Rt click on a section and select "Add Class Library"
Select a class library that contains your custom Form class and add it.
To create a new form based on this, just select the form class in the toolbox, Rt click and select "Create Form"
Voila a new form based on your custom class.
This method leaves the VFP default alone to create VFP base forms.
You can also add as many form classes as needed to this and use the same method to create a new form based on a custom class
>>Tools/Options/Controls then set the Visual Class libraries option group. Add your libraries there and be sure to "Set as Default" button.
