I can tell you what I sometimes do: 1. Create a Fileman file for new classes you require. 2. Write routines containing entry points to serve as methods. The instance methods should, of course, have a first parameter that is an IEN in the file. (You can even call it THIS or SELF, if you like). 3. Implement compositions with subfiles and specialization by creating .01 fields that point to the superclass. Of course, this could be accomplished using just globals, too. === Gregory Woodhouse <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "Interaction is the mind-body problem of computing." --Philip L.
