>This is not data destroyed. It's a reference lost.
That's true. However, for someone who's not familiar with the internal structure of VCX files (and why should they be?), it appears lost.
>Say, would you like VFP to fill your screen with tons of warnings every time you Modify Structure - just because you had the old name of a field already mentioned in some .prg already? Or, if you issue "Do Form Whatever" in a .prg, and it can't find the whatever.scx, so it won't compile (or even save) the .prg?
This isn't at all the same thing. If I change a name, I certainly expect that I have to hunt down everywhere in my code that the name is used. What I don't expect to have to do is hack the VCX. :)
>I think you're just asking too much.
Not at all. Christof has presented a simple solution to this problem. The VFP programmers just weren't smart enough to think of it, apparently.
>Quite so, therefore it simply doesn't care - it assumes we know what we're doing.
However, it also assumes that we know what _it's_ doing behind the scenes, in fields with names like RESERVED3. :)
