Subclassing is when you create/modify something based on Something else, ie.

Taking a Base Class and Creating a Class that has everything the Base Class does plus some extra stuff, this is called a Sub-Class.

if the new class has everything the base does and more wouldn't that be a super class?

And have a sub class be a small section from a base class?

I am not trying to be sarcastic, it is just very new to me and I am trying to understand
thank you for your time and have a good day

Subclassing is a technique that enables you to intercept Windows messages being sent to a form or control. By intercepting these messages, you can then write your own code to change or extend the behavior of the object.
