Joe,
Its worth looking at a free service Jing:

http://www.jingproject.com/

Open an account and you can post video recordings of your application (all
done via the Jing interface), files etc and then post the link for us to
look at. 

It's totally free but you are limited to the amount of disk space you use
(100Mb I think) which is more than sufficient for occasional use.

I use it to record interactive sessions and then post them. As they say, a
picture is worth a thousand words.

Subject: Re: Is there an official repository for documented glitches in VFP

That was my workaround.   Suppose I want a user to select a part of a 
string I am showing?

I debated whether or not to give an example as I was afraid the answers I 
would get would be for the example rather than the question.  I gave the 
example to be clear.  I guess I got  "Advice for a greenhorn" but I'd 
still like to know - Is there an official place for bug demo code?

TIA - Joe

on a form that has command buttons etc or take the time to reduce the
problem to its simplest terms in a demo application.  The demo could then be
tested on different versions of VFP and shared with the Profox group or sent
to Microsoft as a bug report if they accept them.
