>> Can someone comment as to why you would want to design a NON-VISUAL class
in a VCX (other than preferring the GUI look for seeing the methods/events
in dropdowns)?<<

I think the big loss using PRG-based classes is the loss of Builders and 
Property Editors. I use
these on a regular basis and would not want to give up this productivity 
booster. I also feel
IntelliSense is more robust inside a VCX-based class than a PRG-based one.

I use both mostly because some classes can only be done in PRGs. Like Dave I 
often find myself
tinkering and designing in a PRG and then migrate to a VCX when I get closer to 
what I think is the
best solution.

One of the reasons Bo moved the GDI+ code to PRGs is the size of the source 
code. I forget the
numbers, but in the case of GDI+ the PRGs add significantly less bytes to the 
resulting EXE. Less
memory and less EXE to pull over the wire results is a performance boost.
