OK, then, we're talking about two completely different things, then. I'm using 'container' to mean a class that other objects can be added to: buttons, textboxes, labels, etc. I don't mean something that can have a specific child type.
What do you suggest I name the class attribute that determines if a particular class can have *any* type of control added to it? Or maybe just drop it altogether and test every instance in the designer to see if it is a form, panel or dialog?
