Oh. Yes, in that case, your approach would make more sense.

True, that's easier if all you want to do is disable helptags. But I'm
assuming that the idea is to give the user an option, which they may choose to exercise while the window is already open, in which case you'd also need some way to restore the helptags. Which is why I suggested a subclass/class
interface approach, because that would simplify turning them back on.

Well, you could create a class interface, but it would be easier (and in
my opinion, simpler) to put this in the open event of all your windows:

dim i as integer

if shouldDisableHelpTags = true then
   for i = 0 to controlCount-1
       control(i).helpTag = ""
   next
end if

George et al...

The only place I can find documentation about class interfaces is in the
docs when they speak of control bindings.

Is there some more thorough description of what a Class Interface is?
What
ones exist now for controls? How one can make their own?

Thanks,
Paul K

Subclassing the controls (with our without a Class Interface to tie
them
together; the Class Interface would simplify it a bit) should make this
pretty easy to do.
