>Actually it was "THISFORM.SETALL("foreCOLOR",RGB(0,0,160))" but I removed it so no effect.

I see. With that code, it will overides *any* class that has FORECOLOR property. You can't do much about it.

You can't change the object once it is created. If you need to do that you have to add more code to the class.


>PS. Is it not the wee hours where you live?

What is "wee hours"? is it "time to sleep" ? Sorry, though I've been to US, but my english is not good enough. <g>
