>>>But George, I'm not saying they *can't* be subclassed, just not visually. And I'm not saying I couldn't think of a reason to sub-class textboxes or labels, just that I couldn't think of a good reason that they had to be visually sub-classed. Just create one class library to put all your sub-classed simple objects in. It's easy as pie. As Kevin said, I've got several posts on that subject here, but rather than search for them, cuz I'm lazy, I'll just re-post it here (copy/paste from my saved samples is easier <g>).

Tom,

I'll admit to being both spoiled and lazy.:-)
