    How do I create propery with list values?

    Nothing critical, just looking for a better way to do something.

    I added a property to one of my forms that will hold a default color.

    I currently set it by using Thisform.MyProperty = RGB(0,0,0)

    I like the way that VFP accepts values for its color properties
    better: e.g., Forecolor = 0,0,0

    Is there a simple way for me to use this method of setting multiple
    values? Obviously, this is just a wish list type thing, not critical.
    Thanks!

    Ignore munged e-mail address above.

    Vince,

    You can use an Assign method for the property. Note though that when making
    the assignment on the property sheet will not cause the Assign to trigger
    when the object instantiates, so you need to put code like:

    this.MyColorProperty = this.MyColorProperty

    in the Init()
