Przezmek, sorry for jumping here, but I belive I have one thing to say about this:

PUBLISHED scope only means when using an IDE (like Xailer or VXH), and it means that a PROPERTY will be shown in an object inspector. Almost PUBLISHED properties are also PERSISTENT, but not always. A very few times, you need to show a property in the object inspector, but not to be saved or serialized, but only for other purpose. That's why PUBLISHED is a separated scope. In Xailer, we use 4 scopes: PUBLISHED, PUBLIC (EXPORTED), PROTECTED and PRIVATE (HIDDEN). Recently, when migrating Xailer to Harbour, we had to make a trick to support PUBLISHED scope, since it's not present in Harbour, but of course, I'd like to drop that hack if it were natively available ;-) I don't know how VXH works, but I think it should be very like this. BTW, I'll ve very happy if xHarbour reborn from its ashes, like the Phoenix ;-) Regards, Jose F.
