>It's just another table. Why not just open it with a USE command in VFP and edit the fields just as you would any other table.

That's fine fine hacking something out, but, I'm talking about looking at and editing a real code file in normal code-writing workflow. Opening a VCX with a USE command and hacking around in it is nothing like editing a code file.

That's like pushing your car to work.... It takes forever, it's dangerous, and you look funny. (I just made that up.)
