Thanks for your response, Cor.

You're right, OO is one big thing to me. I don't know enough about it to
break it out into additional descriptive letters.

re: It is nicely done and still it is a hell to do as you are used to .Net
programming languages.
You mean converting an application following structured programming methods
to one following OO(x) methods is a pain because you have to do all of the
object analysis?
I thought people rewrote those things from scratch instead of trying to do a
conversion.

I'd like to understand when you say:
In OOP you create small methods which can be seen on them self and as you
use them more by making classes of them.

but I don't. Can you say that in a different way?

Are you talking about methods written independently of classes which provide
functions independent of the type of their caller?

Thanks again,

Beth,

Don't mix up OO and OOP, OOP is to be able to use small memory with tons of
classes.

At the moment I am busy with doing some corrections on a VB6 program that
was made by others 8 years ago. It is nicely done and still it is a hell to
do as you are used to .Net programming languages.

In OOP you create small methods which can be seen on them self and as you
use them more by making classes of them.
Try it, add the end you will think, how could I ever do it on the classic
way.

I was in past a devoted follower of Dijkstra, but that was in the time that
there were no PC's, mobiles, Internet and more of that stuff.
