I found some command buttons I thought were useful and saved them in one of my class libraries. Now I find some of the custom properties make assumptions about where these and other buttons are on the form (e.g. refer to Thisform.cmdenterquery) which is, of course, not where I've put the command buttons in this situation (I have them on a page). My philosophical question is: should I just go ahead and put in my own code to replace the default code (which seems to defeat the purpose of less coding, or do I say "Hmmm, I should make another class of buttons for situations where I have the buttons in the page rather than on the form itself."

This seems to be like an issue of standards (e.g. keep button on form) vs. adaptability (I need them on the page this time). How do you decide "Yep, this is a class", or "Nope, this should be a custom or modification of existing method."?

Thanks,

Sylvia
