When I began working on this - I thought it might end up being a cool

after starting to work on it - I figured it may not work for everyone. The
PRG's in our system - generally define a screen using the TEXT Command - and
then later use GETS to read in the data. So - just don't know if it's such a
standard method - and would help anyone. But, I still may consider it for
the uploads section...

Aha!  Now I understand what you're doing.

I was thinking of asking why you would want to convert a PRG to an SCX - since an SCX is both slower in operation and harder to maintain. But I was thinking of a PRG containing a Form class definition; what you're dealing with is old forms that don't use object code.

I have quite a few infrequently-used forms that I built in the Form Designer, then converted via the Code view in the class browser to a class definition that just drops into my PRG. Eliminates two files and keeps things together.
