>>Just Dangit! I'm a fairly skilled programmer, but a apparently a terrible typist/speller. 9 times out of 10 when I my app bombs (while I am running it from the IDE during development), it is not becuase of bad logic, but simply becuase I have misspelled a variable name in a method. Good grief I am tottaly tired of that. I sure wish the thing would figure that when I close the code window, or even better, when I am typing.

That's cool. Not even in the help file.

Here's some link too: http://www.alvechurchdata.co.uk/hints-and-tips/foxzdef.html

Also has ZDEF for constants.

I once used a tool that I found on fox.wikis.com that will harvest out local vars from the method and add the LOCAL keyword at the top of the code window.

Maybe between the two of these tools, I can complete my VFP stack so I won't have withdrawals from the Visual Stusio IDE.
