I would agree that it seems kludgey.  Worked for a "genius" last gig and he used it and it was amazing to see it in action operate easily but my spidey sense said "yeah, no...I don't like it."

You can always get the code from the upmost level by using the "QuatroDot"
operator  ::
like  class::MyMethod()

If you would need one in between, then you need to do some clever IF
branching in the beginning of each level's code by providing a parameter
when calling the method:

PROC MyMethod
LPARAMETER lSkipIt
IF lSkipIt
        RETURN DODEFAULT()
ENDIF
&& regular code goes here

Betreff: Calling code in parent's parent class

Hi all
Let's say that I have the following situation:

GreatGrandParent -> GrandParent -> Parent -> Class

In Class I want to bypass the code in Parent but call the code in either
GrandParent OR GreatGrandParent.

Is this possible and, if so, how?  Many thanks

Paul Newton
