Thanks, I'm taking over a contract where the main goal is to clean up the code and make it more maintainable (and get it ready for .NET). I've been primarily working with Java and C++ for the last 4 or 5 years, so things are obviously different. Anyway, I've come across a lot of code that used default properties and before going in there and changin a bunch of stuff I wanted to make sure I had good reason. Thanks.
