By now I'm sure I'm not the only one who has ended up accumulating a large number of custome templates...... Somebody out there please tell me that you've come up with an automated way of copying them between styles in VB3?

This will really suck to have to cut & paste all of the module templates when a new skin is added. :o

Whenever adding styles, you really should have one 'main' style, and then make the rest of your styles a child of that main style. That way when you add a template you only have to add it to one style. ;)

For my similar skins that's what I do (eg: the liquid a child of the fixed) but for two completely different skins I don't because then I wouldn't want any changes to propagate to the different skins.

Looks like I'm going to have to keep the vb default as a parent and put all of my styles underneath it as a children with the similar skins then have children themselves.

(grumble, grumble, grumble) Over at VB.com the answer always seems to be "go ask at VB.org" and on VB.org I found a nice looking hack for vb2 but nothing for vb3.
