>>hello, there is a way to write a recursive procedure in FoxPro 2.6 ?

>Yes there is a limit of 32 calling levels in Fox 2.6 and this is not able to be changed. However 32 levels of recursive routine can be used to trnasgress a directory tree that is 2^32 levels deep when coded correctly. That is 4,294,927,296 levles of dirs or bom explosion. Probably could handle the Bill of materials explosion for the space shuttle.

Can you be more specific, please? I don't see the relation between the number of recursion levels n and 2^n.
