>From what I could tell you get access to all base classes. However, when you make modifications to the system, you use their customization manager to create the subclassed item. At that point the system has registered that you are no longer using their base class for that part of the application and instead instatiates your subclassed item. The nice part of this is that when you do an upgrade, they only upgrade the baseclass. Which will upgrade your subclass without requiring you to "port the mods".

If you add an item to one fo their menus instead of putting the item in the custom menu option, the upgrade will over-write your menu change and you will have to recreate that menu change. But that is a small price to pay for the other gains.

I can tell you unless something has changed with their last build release you do not get access to their main SQL class that does all talking to SQL or FoxPro depending on which version you have. This is one of the main reasons we have not upgraded to PRO 7.2.

I haven't looked at the customization manager since 6.0 but back then it was crap. I hope they have made it better by now.
