Create a custom textbox control in VFP

[VBFOXDEV35]

All:

I know how I can create a custom textbox contol in VB to be the following:

[textbox1] [textbox2] [label1]

textbox1 = read-only data
textbox2 = data entered by user
label1 = field definition

How does one go about this in VFP? I need to create a form that uses this field structure on numerous forms for data entry and I was wondering the best way to do this rather than placing 2 textbox and 1 label and then copy and pasting till the cows come home.

thanks all who reply.

(At Least) two possibilities:
1) Create a container class that includes the two text boxes and the label. Now just drop this container on the forms you need them on.
2) Create a form class with the two text boxes and the label, and base all your forms that need these on this class.

Welcome to OOP!
