Author Foxpro file creation

Hi All!

I have created a screen using screen builder in Foxpro 2.6 for DOS. I want
to see the file content in text format.

For example: In Visual basic if i created a form the file infoemations are
stored in a text format. I can create a visual basic form without using VB
Editor. I can create an frm file format using notepad. It will work fine in
VB when i copied the file to another machine and include in VB Project.

Note:
can i do the same for foxpro for DOS?
and Visual Foxpro Forms?


Thanks in Advance
Viswanathan S

No. VFP forms are binary files and in fact, they are dbfs.

Hi Viswanathan S,

Please see my answer in the Chatter newsgroup. If you want to post to more
than one group you can use the (hidden) button under the word "Newsgroups"
in the upper left of the message window. Most of us who hang out here read
all the groups anyways.

Hi Cindy Winegarden!

Thanks for your reply and suggestion for posting.

I am posting messages through Outlook Express 6.0. I cannot find the hidden
button in the message window.
Please send the details about how to post more than one group using (hidden)
button.

Thanks in Advance
Viswanathan S

Pass your mouse over the "Newsgroups:" label when you're in a reply, you'll
see that it's actually a button you can click. You'll be able to select
multiple groups to crosspost to there.
