Now, you know what I mean <g>. And while a form may be a class it does not
have to be thought of as such (or I might have left VB years ago). I
actually have precisely 3 classes I use in my apps ... one for popup menus,
one for the terrific htmlhelp class for chm help files, and one for a
special slide-in toolbar I use in my for-release-some-day tools for VB devs.
In fact <scanning> my working folders I find only 79 files ending with .cls,
of which most are duplicates (minor tweaks) of about 11 class files. I do
not develop usercontrols or dlls either.
