Ok, I guessed as much. Here is what I keep running into. I get a 3rd party class or tool that includes a form containing controls which inherit directly from .net controls. I create a subclass of that form for my own use so that the base class can be updated. Then I find an enhanced control (that may also get future updates) that I would like the form to make use of without mucking with the original 3rd party base class. I'm not sure how best to deal with this situation without having to duplicate lots of code.
Thanks!

>>>If I sub-class a form containing controls, is there any way to override the class that a specific control on the form inherits from? In other words, can I force the control to inherit from a different class than it inherits from on the parent/base form. I assume not and can see the reasoning, but wondering anyway.

>>The controls don't inherit from the form. They are instances of built-in .NET classes that are independent of the form. To see the control declarations, expand the collapsed region near the top of the code. I forget exactly what .NET calls the region.
