>>I am trying to create a class, based on Custom, to contain functions that may be called by many objects in one place. Is Custom the right class to base my class from? Where in the custom class would I code these functions? The end result I'm after is to create a global object reference (omycustomclass=CREATEOBJECT('mycustomclass') that contains all the common functions to be called from throughout my app. TIA

Thanks Ed. I was aware of this but couldn't figure out why when I created the new class based on Custom in the Class Browser that no PEM's showed up except for name. I then realized that I had left Show Non-Default Properties Only checked yesterday (whacking head against monitor). I need a holiday ;-)
