Hi Hugo:

You are absolutely right. () should be mapped to LPARAMETERS, our docs are wrong about that. We fixed that in our compiler and should appear soon in the ONLINE version.

With this change, (parameter_declaration) should behave as if you have declared them with LPARAMETERS parameter_declaration and that is the VFP way.

Thanks.

In my case I always like to avoid using LPARAMETERS, I like the use of (Parameter) better, but if I ever choose to use your compiler, I might encounter some problems and will need to change lots of code
