Well I happen to think that classes are a necessary aspect of good design
of an application, to achieve encapsulation, abstraction, ease of
maintenance, and so on and so on. Much of this can be achieved in other
ways, classes are just the best IMO.

There are also some things you just cannot do without classes, application
events as an example.

Yes I do have a 'bee' about +...lol.
It's just that I have seen you mention it twice today, but rarely encounter
it in the 'real' world.

Ever see one of those gawd awful Sams

VBA/VB.

Can't comment on that, haven't read that many books, at least not ones that
