How can we fix this? > Of course the dereferentiation of PBase while always have the size of TBase. That's the point of a pointer. You need to add a static Create method to each subclass if you want to use that concept. And no kind of TClassSelf or whatever will help you there as you'd need virtual class functions for that and objects don't support those just as they don't support a "class of" kind of type. There's a reason why classes are superior in nearly all cases after all. Regards, Sven >
