Of course, work means "writing a routine to do it all in one pass". Or did I hear "open each one as a table, browse, look for..."?

I'm asking this because there are some kinds of repetitive chores 'round VFP, like blanking the Tag1, Tag2 and Expr in every .frx, reinstalling your builders, reapplying default base form template, reapplying default classes for IntelliDrop etc, which has to be done after every reinstall of VFP. I'm planning to write a routine to do just that all (as much as possible). I'd like to hear some other views on this matter.
