Hi Barbara,

>But there's always a problem INTEGRATING add-ons.

I'm not sure I understand this. xiLight and CEE are both FoxPro extensions. I haven't tried xiLight my self, but CEE is a FoxPro application and a FLL that can be executed within FoxPro. It adds a menu pad and defines a number of hot keys. BTW, the FoxPro API has got a number of functions (most of them are available in FoxTools) to deal with the editor window. They all start with _Ed.

>I just think it would be awfully nice to have all of the variables in a PRG or method and all of the control-names in a form available when editing Method code.

In VFP 5 you have sort of in the object dialog (rightclick or Shift+F10 and J). This lets you insert the full reference of any object on the form right into the current position of the method code. It even handles relative adressing (This.Parent....) if you are for example editing a method of a control in a container and adresses another control on that container.

I think one of the cool things about VFP and FoxPro is that you can manipulate the environment to a high degree.
