Jerry,

VFP8 and later have a new Code References tool (on Tools menu) which is better than Filer. Give it a try.

>I use the VFP8 and VFP9 filer to look for strings inside of text files in a selected directory. Once I find files that contain this string I always double click the file to view it's content.
>
>For some reason I am no longer able to double click on text files in the VFP8 and VFP9 filer. When I do this now, I receive the following error:
>**********************
> An error occurred with Filer:
> Error number: 1440
> Method: editfile
> Line number: 26
> OLE exception error: Exception code c0000005. OLE object may be corrupt
>**********************
>
>This use to work all the time. And if I go to My Computer, I am able to double click on the text file(s) and view them in Notepad just fine.
>
>What would cause this error to occur?
>
>Thanks,
>
