Re: Reassign a class to another one

Similar to the container approach, if I have more than 1 or 2 
controls to swap out, I'll use an invisible pageframe, and just show 
the appropriate page as necessary. Much easier than setting visible 
and / or enabled for all the different controls. FYI - the pageframe 
is made by having no border width & color, and having no tabs. I 
forget off the top of my head the correct term for these properties. 
I've found it to be a very effective technique in managing form's 
that have to look or behave different based on some criteria.
