>>ProjectExplorer looks pretty good. I'm stuck in a transition phase from an inherited VFP6 to 9. We have to stay in 6 for now. I'd like to get rid of VSS though. FoxBin2Prg does not seem to work with VFP6 menus. I made SccTextX work with them. How would I go about getting ProjectExplorer to use SccTextX?

>Change that to specify a new class you'll create to support SCCTextX. The "path" element is the path to SCCTextX.prg. The class will be a subclass of BinaryToTextConversion in ProjectExplorerEngine.vcx. Take a look at BinaryToTextConversionFoxBin2PRG as an example.

Unfortunately I cannot open the files in vfp9, especially the menus. We modify in 6 and 9 knows nothing of it. That's why I asked. If the OS knows and PE was linked, it would be automatic.
