The question of whether line-tying in the photosphere is capable of stabilizing certain classes of both ideal and resistive MHD instabilities is discussed within the framework of microscopic (particle) theory. The source of driving energy between two of these classes is examined, i.e., between (ideal or resistive) interchange instability and (ideal or resistive) kink instability. The effects of line-tying upon perpendicular and parallel current driven instabilities are discussed; one example of each is analyzed, namely the ideal MHD Rayleigh-Taylor instability and the resistive kink or tearing mode. It is assumed in the mathematical models that at each end of the system the field lines are frozen into perfectly conducting endplates. A short examination of what would occur when the end plates have a finite resistivity is also given.
