VCX's and SCX's are already packing when saved or recompiled. This is not going to save you any space. The blocksize for the memo files for classes and forms is already 1, you cannot save space with this trick.

Due to some limitations in the VFP languages you cannot convert all classes into PRGs. There are class constructions that are impossible to capture in a PRG. Besides this, how would you build forms with controls that are based on classes in a PRG ?
