How can I make Intellisense show my custom class object?

[jrumbaug]

I have just written my first CLASS with VFP8. When it is finished, it will manage the printing of a HCFA1500 insurance form. Here is a stripped down version of what I wrote:

DEFINE CLASS Hcfa1500 AS Custom
COMPANYNAME = ''
COMPANYADDRESS1 = ''
COMPANYADDRESS2 = ''
COMPANYCITY = ''
COMPANYSTATE = ''
COMPANYZIP = ''
ENDDEFINE

If I create an object from the command window, the next time I type the obect's name in the command window, Intellisense pops up the list of object properties for me to choose, but Intellisense does not popup if I am typing in code in a form or program. What can/should I do?

Well, I found my own answer.
The Intellisense manager allowed me to add a VISUALLY created class. I have not found a way to add a programatically created class to Intellisense.

The next hurdle was to find out how to add properties and methods to a visually created class. Now I know what the CLASS menu option is for. I have a way to go, but it's coming along now.
