We've created Visual Data Environment and Cursor classes (not based on the VFP base cursor, data environment and relation classes) in VFE 98. It wasn't really hard to do and is really worth the effort in the long term because it makes creating and maintaining DE's & Cursors much easier in the long run.
How is the class then instantiated, in the form's .Init()? I think I mentioned
that our shop is currently using ProMatrix and it would take more than custom
DE's to get folks to switch.
From everything I've read using the native DE is faster in opening files and
setting relations because "the DE uses low level file operations". If I sub-class it, will the same remain true?
