It's not clear why do you need to convert form to prg. If you do, check
http://vfpx.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=ClassBrowserX&referringTitle=Home>I have an app which uses an external monitor to display data from another vfp app
>I created a project with a simple startup prg and a form and compiled it as an exe.
>then in my regular vfp app I do a run /n external.exe which works but when the regular app ends the called external app remains on the external monitor. then next time tha app starts it creates another external app and so forth
>
>I need to kill the external app somehow. Or better yet call it with create or newobject
>
>in order to accomplish this I used the object browser to convert the scx into a prg but that prg has errors in it when it comes to the grid definitions.

>how could I accomplish this?
