The part of Object-oriented programming that the old "part time" programmers like us need to get over is that most of the stuff that we did redundantly is already done in the objects.  What we need to do now is examine and learn the objects and the things they can do...and then when we find something we can't do, we can modify existing objects to do it..and that's where the power lies...but I'd guess for most of what we're interested in doing, the present objects will fill our purposes just fine, and all we need to do is learn to use them. Take care, good luck. Lee
