>>Yes, I agree that it is handy that pretty much almost all VFP files are DBFs. And I have done "hacking" of these by looking for where this or that class is being used. I just wasn't sure which columns in the VCX would tell me if the records have the "main" name of the class or some ancillary information. Or maybe I was just being lazy <g>. I have to make huge changes in many classes of my application (today) and trying to move as fast as possible.
