John,

I would but as I discovered the other day, I have to directly email you to
send a file and I don't have your email address.  This email doesn't provide
it for some reason.  Email me at jcolby at colbyconsulting.com, include your
email address and I'll send it along.

John,

I forgot to mention that you will also need to add a collection in the form
where you will store the pointer to the classes so that they don't
immediately unload again.  Using the method I showed previously, you had a
physical variable dimensioned for each class.  Now you want to automate the
thing so that as many classes load as are needed.  This works but the
pointer to the class has to be stored somewhere.  That somewhere would be
the collection.  You also need to build a function specifically for
instantiating the class.  The new form code would look like:

I have modified  my demo to add another form that adds the classes into a
collection and it is available to anyone who wants it.

John,
Is it acceptable to reference the collection of the OptionGroup which was
passed by ref to the class?

I was thinking that if it was then I could traverse the collection to find
the OptionButton which has the same value as the OptionGroup and the based
on the value color the label.

My goal being that I could traverse the Form's control collection on the
OnOpen event and instantiate all of the OptionGroups in one statement rather
than having to organically know and type in the names of all the frames and
option buttons.
