What I've done in situations like that is:

1. delete all .fxp files
2. recompile all the class libs (COMPILE CLASSLIB *.vcx)
3. recompile all the forms (COMPILE FORM *.scx)
4. recompile entire application.



>I have inherited responsibility for a large VFP 9 app, or should I say a large number of related apps. (Together they run most of the business). The whole thing is structured in a way I have not run into before and the specific problem I am facing is the "source is out of date" message when trying to debug.

It then displays a menu and a toolbar. Depending on what the user chooses, a call is made to a program or form within the appropriate sub-app.

What do I need to do to trace through the source code? I can do so fine in the main EXE but not in any of the sub-apps.
