Walter,

>This does not say that I can SUBclass a form, but rather basing a form on a class. IOW can I visually create inherit classes lets say 2 - 4 levels deep ?

Yes, yes, yes ... how many times do I have to say that you can do this? I *am* describing sub-classing a form. Are you talking about an instance of a form? I'm not ... I'm talking about a sub-class.

>>What do you mean by "complex" User controls? Somthing simular to VFPs control class? What about containers ? (Really just asking)

Yes, a UserControl is similar to a VFP control class maybe ... I forget, it's been awhile since I've done VFP. <g> It's basically used as a container for dropping textboxes, buttons, etc. to build one customized control.
