What I would like to have is the autocompletion of declared variables. I don't know if it is me that does something wrong but VFP7 does not behave like VB on this. In VB, you declare a variable and you simply have to type the firsts letters and press CTRL-SPACEBAR to have a list of choice of auto completion.
Also, suppose I declare an ADODB command object :
LOCAL cmd AS ADODB.COMMAND
cmd.CcommandType = ... I would like to see the same predefined constants that are available in VB.
Other point. As I said in another thread, I would really appreciate to get a list of fields from a specific table. When I type MyTable. ...I would like to have the same behavior that I find in the command window, that is the list of fields available for the specified table.
Hope this clarified my point. As I previously said, I love VFP and most important of all, I think it is the best tool to do database development applications. I use it since FP2.5 Dos and I never found a better product than FP-VFP since then when it comes to medium to medium-large size databases. That said, I have also to work with VB for some applications and one thing I like of VB is its very good intellisense feature.
