Inheritence in forms

[Pakmarshal]

Hi everyone,

I am developing a windows based application in VS2005. I want all my form to be inherits from one of my class e.g.ParentClass but indeed the windows forms already inherits windows.forms.f orm class. what I have tried is that, I inherit "windows.forms. form" in "ParentClas s" and all forms inherits my "ParentClas s". But in this case when I view the design of the form IDE gives error. Please guide my in this regard.

Thanks and Regards

That shouldn't be a problem. What you've described sounds fine.
The same thing is done in this tutorial, only using UserControl instead of Form.
In the end all of these items inherit from Control.

So the "simple answer" was to mark it 'public' and 'inherits' from... ?
So the simple answer was to follow the instructions on MSDN. Got it.
