Since you were probably using Foxtools for the JustExt() function, the old compiled code doesn't have a token for it, and therefore can't find the function. VFP 6.0 can run 5.0 code without re-compiling but references to old foxtools functions won't be found since the functions no longer exist in the libary and no token exists in the compiled code.

This was in a method of a formclass, and misbehaved even after recompiling (several times), and stopped misbehaving when it was handed a local variables instead of an object property. Well, nothing new - old FoxTools functions (depending on version) refused to accept a memo field, or a string longer than 255 chars and things like that - this kind of makes me feel at home.
