No. The MyTimer is the class name, tmrDoTheWork is the instance name.

One can add properties to an object either as part of the class definition (done for you by V.F.P in the case of a VCX based class) or they can be added at runtime. Example of runtime addition:

This.AddObject("InstanceName", "ClassName" )
*- or
This.AddObject("tmrDoTheWork", "MyTimer" )

Note that AddObject() enables the use of This.Parent in the object that was added.
