Re: Help - What is the best approach?

Hi Mike. What I meant to say was that I did not want to take all of the code
from both applications (forms), which controls either the grid or browser,
and lump them into one form.

I guess what I want to do is just have 2 objects , or something...not sure
what else, representing either the grid or browser with all properties,
behaviour etc and just have to position them on a form in the new
application.

Thanks
