Referring to that posting from December last year re "class of"... I 
understand the use of Activator.CreateInstance(ClassType) as a replacement 
for the Delphi "class of" for use in a C# abstract class factory, but how 
would I use that ClassType reference to call a static method (eg public 
static DoIt()) which has been declared in the Class class?

In Delphi I would simply retrieve the "class of" reference, (eg ClassClass - 
class of TClass), and call the function normally - eg 
TClass(ClassClass).DoIt;
