Hi Cetin,

Unfortunately no. There were articles in FoxPro Advisor, May and August of this year I believe. You might want to check yesterday's thread for one on retrieving the drives and directories that I responded to. One of the posts mentioned the articles and dates. I don't know, however, whether they're available from the site.

Other than that, searching the MSDN library is probably your best shot.

Last April, Nancy Folsom, David Frankenbach, Ed Rauh, and I (as well as some others) noted some strange behavior with AMEMBERS() with non-VFP objects. Apparently, under some rather erratic conditions which we never tracked down, the PEMs were available. Normally, they don't show up until accessed. Oh, Ken Levy jumped in that thread as well.

As I recall (for some reason) I think we'll be able to get them in the next version of VFP. Of course, that doesn't help now< g >.
George
