>Methinks you can still save the name of the image control in a property. For example, in some property (for an example, I will use a form property, .oImageControl), save the value: "ThisForm.CntMyClass.Image1", if that is where the image will be accessed.

I see it should be done at design time. I will have to change all my forms and controls that reffers to commands properties. What if a control, p.e. a checkbox, has something like this:

Thisform.Command1.Visible = This.Value

??. I will have to change this code, won't I?. It is desirable just to add the image class at runtime without making any changes to the existing code
