Patrick,

We can't natively do this like Visual dBASE. Look in the libs here for addprop.fll it's also available on the MS website. VFP6 will include the ability to create properties on the fly.

>Is it possible to add custom properties programmatically at run time, as they will be extracted from a table that is maintainable.
