Sorry, it was in the October 1997 issue, not September.

I'm kind of leery about uploading it, since it is Microsoft's code, and the change belongs to FoxPro Advisor. The change involved adding a new funtion or two.

>Could you put the modified version in the files section? I looked at the code to see if I could make it alphabetical, but the code is really complicated and I don't have time to figure it out.

>>I wrote a wrapper around VFP's SCCTEXT.PRG (which is what is used by the Visual SourceSafe integration). SCCTEXT.PRG will convert forms, reports, etc. to a text file. I run the wrapper for the version of a form that I've modified, then I run it for the version that is in SourceSafe. Finally, I use SourceSafe to compare the two text files that were created.

>>Also, I modified SCCTEXT.PRG according to an article in the Sept. 1997 issue of FoxPro Advisor. This modification sorts methods in alphabetical to avoid the re-ordering that occurs when changes are made to the form, report, etc.
