I agree, Ajit. While there is a lot I like about Foxpro, it can be very frustrating to go back to those tools that haven't been upgraded in a long time. Greg Green's additional tools have great potential, but there is a steep learning curve in getting them to work and use them efficiently. When I w

It is kind of funny when I have to do a power app form in SharePoint. It has so many reminders or memories of doing forms in vfp. Defining code to do what you want as the form opens. In SP, I have a list with a column for Plant, that defines which of our 22 locations this transaction applies to.

If you use VFP Projects in your dev environment, do yourself a favor and checkout Doug's ProjectExplorer https://github.com/DougHennig/ProjectExplorer. A much better and flexible UI for managing projects, integration with Git, etc. Highly recommended. -- rk From: ProfoxTech On Behalf Of Eric

I've often thought a worthwhile project would be to only recreate those DBF files on the fly when the form/report/visual class is edited, but make the code the actual artifact that is kept around. That would have made source control so much better. The way we do it now is backwards. Eric On Fri,
