No, "self" is not defined for a module.
I am doing similar things as you: I have common methods for
scaling Windows and ContainerControls at load time. The scaling
methods, residing in a Module have the applicable window as a
parameter and then are called from that Window or ContainerControl
using "self" as the parameter. This works for me quite well. --
The only issues I have is with an ancient bug: the Captions in
BevelButtons and PopupMenues do not show the scaled text until they
are physically pushed when they are on composit windows.
