Thanks, Just got back from a chamber of commerce meeting, so I'll have to try it tomorrow if I still have a job. Let them know tonight that I can handle any type of typical database stuff, 2.6 stuff, but I need more time to get up to speed on the OOP stuff. No problem building the forms, etc. from scratch, but I'm having a hell of a time when they have "ONLY" custom classes that are up to the top of my head in custom code that is linked to multiple systems with all of it being proprietary and no documentation.
Not a problem with time, but I've only had about 20 hrs so far to devote to it and I still haven't received my copy of VFP from the Microsoft ISV program that I paid for, so I don't really have a practice area to play in.

Open the base class, SAVE AS somethingElse, then Hack up the SomethingElse, and create a new form based on that. Or, if it's only a few objects that need deleting, I just set there sizes to 1X1, and set visible = .f. -- Vince Teachout Caracal Software www.caracal.net 518-733-9411 [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
