I have a (third-party) visual component for which I would like to make a general fix in the form of a class helper method. Can I:
a) hide an existing method of the component with a helper of the same name and 
b) gain access to the original method within the helper by qualifying with Self.?

    I once had a similar problem (probably with a component from the same third party vendor) and my attempts "breaking" into the class failed miserably - I would not recommend it. BTW which visual component are you talking about ?

    Markus Joos It's a grid, and I'll refrain from identifying the vendor here.
