polimorfism. but i want to execute both!!!

[remyvrs]

to be more specific i give a smaller exemple of what i intend to do: having the commandbutton class i enherit it by the class commandbutton_enherited and i write the method click with the commands let's say
messagebox("from the enherited class")
and then i make using this class (instance) an object whose event click i also write:
messagebox("from the enherited class")
normally the only event that take place on a click is
messagebox("from the enherited class") but i have more of this classes objects and some of them (many) i want to execute both the class method and the object specific method (the two of them are polimorfic)
somebody have an idea of how can be this done but to be an elegant solution beacouse in time i wrote this post it just came the idea of creating another method (xyz) for class enherited and leave it blank but on the last line of the click event i want to write this.xyz

It's nice to be important but it's more important to be nice.
Thanks for your attitude!

Look at DODEFAULT(). -Jim

remyvrs,

I suggest you try reading the help for DODEFAULT(). Basically it runs the code in the parent class.

So you have your class with the messagebox in the click event. You sub-class that and want to do something extra to that messagebox.

So in the click event of the sub-class you could put:

DODEFAULT()
MESSAGEBOX("This is the sub-class")


Hope that helps,

Stewart

thanks very much for the help you have provided me.
the dodefault() method fits very well to my intentions... in other words it work very well ( for me)
