Hi Steve.

Sorry for the delay in my reply -- I was at the Visual FoxExpress DevCon in Las Vegas. For faster support, I suggest sending an email to support@stonefield.com, since that mailbox is checked several times a day.

>1. The manual says to change oMeta = createobject('MetaMgr', ...) TO oMeta = createobject('DBCXMgr', ...). This doesn't work because now DBCXMgr is based on a form, so I get 'Object class is invalid for this container'.

As Bob pointed out, since DBCXMgr is a form, you can CREATEOBJECT() it but not ADDOBJECT() it.

>2. When I try to start Stonefield Database Toolkit from the menu, I get a series of 'Cannot Validate View .....'

It sounds like you have some corrupted views. Can you open them via USE without getting an error, or can you issue VALIDATE DATABASE and not see any errors? If so, something else is going on, but I suspect you've changed the structure of a table and broken the views as a result. Fortunately, SDT 5.1 can fix these views. After the SDT Database Explorer has finished coming up, click on a view, then click on the Redefine View button.
