Yes quite right.  Unfortunately no matter what you want to call it, the
complier wants nothing to do with it.  Given the following constructor
method:


Sub CBLnkItmParentOf(itemsTable as CTblItems, linkName as String)
  
  const here = "CBLnkItmParentOf"
  
  self.name = linkName
  Table(0) = itemsTable
  Table(1) = itemsTable
  
  blipoTblItems = itemsTable
End Sub


The compiler complains regarding "Table" that "This method or property does
not exist."  So I guess if I wanted to do this I'd have to cache another
copy of the itemsTable... which is fine.   However you've convinced me I
can't use a BinaryLink here so the code will go away.  But I'm sure I'll
want to use the trick again sometime later.
