Several options: 1) SCCText.prg - used to flatten out DBF source to text for source code integration. People are surprised some times to learn this tool can go both ways. Output is not pretty to edit though. wOOdy has a version many people think is better on VFPX.
2) Tom Rettig (RIP) had tools that convert prgs to VCXs. There is another (noted as beta unfortunately) that goes the other way. Both available on Leafe.com: http://leafe.com/dls/vfp 3) Christof Wollenhaupt has a tool called TwoFox that is used similar to SCCText.prg, but output is XML. Don't think you want to edit XML. http://foxpert.com/downloads.htm 4) SET SELF-SERVING ON: HackCX Professional will open code in PRG editor if you want to edit the code for all methods in one editor for an object. Same for properties. Gives you the full colorization and some advantages of IntelliSense.

I sometimes like to work with my VCX classes in the class browser, and use the IDE to edit the classes, but sometimes I would like to be able to edit them as text/code files. VFP makes you choose one or the other. I know there is a tool on VFPx that will export a VCX to a working code file, but it is only a one-way conversion. I may be dreaming here, but is there a way to export the VCX to a text file, edit it in a code editor, then push it back into a VCX file? That would be the best of both worlds. (And much like Visual Studio I might add). --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/005201c969d6$3bf1ccf0$b3d566...@com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
