Geoff,

Is this control something you have done in a VFP class itself? Is it in a .prg or in a .vcx classlib?

If it's in a classlib reuse is trivial. You can drag the class out of the project manager and drop it onto your form. Or you can point the form controls toolbar at your classlib and pick it from there. I prefer to get them from the PM itself because the toolbar is pretty useless when you have lots of classes derived from a few baseclasses.

If it's in a prg you can only use it at runtime by using thisform.AddObject() to add it to the form. But you can pretty easily convert your prg class to a visual class to make it useable at design time.
