As an aid to understanding the EIPManagerClass, it is useful to organize its methods into two large categories according to their expected use--the primary interface and the virtual methods. This organization reflects what we believe is typical use of the EIPManagerClass methods.

**Non-Virtual Methods**

The Non-Virtual Methods, which you are likely to call fairly routinely from your program, can be further divided into three categories:

**Housekeeping (one-time) Use:**

|  | Init | initialize the BrowseEditClass object |
|  | Kill | shut down the BrowseEditClass object |

**Mainstream Use:**

|  | TakeNewSelection | handle Event:NewSelections |

**Occasional Use:**

|  | ClearColumn | reset column property values |
|  | TakeCompleted | process completion of edit |

All methods listed above are also Derived

**Derived Methods**

Typically you will not call these methods directly--the Non-Virtual Methods call them. However, we anticipate you will often want to override these methods, and because they are derived, they are very easy to override. These methods do provide reasonable default behavior in case you do not want to override them.
