the outlook for the company is looking bleak and I must do the best form my

I should like to move my classes to another folder. How can this be done

I was given the task to port a Vfp Database, that consits of remote views only, to a cursoradapter classlib. So I thought by myself, creating about 390 cursoradapter from scratch could be a boring operation and created a little tool, that should create a classlib and then make a ...

Which should I be using in VFP8?
