>>Dragan mentioned COBOL. For a while I programmed VFP side by side with some COBOL/CICS programmers who could sit at a TSO termninal and knock off apps with thousands of lines of code in less than an hour by judiciously cutting and pasting from other apps that they had worked with every day for years.

Strange nobody did code generator for NET in FoxPro.
If it is to many repetive code then VFP9 could be used quiet nicely to produce it, based on some template code.

I used to use UI-Gen ages ago in Clipper 87. Had my own code templates inside while UI-Gen was doing
donkey work for me quiet proudly. When I see code like Perty posted, first things that comes to my mind are
meta tables, dictionaries, and text (code) generation thereafter ;)
