I was able to help Colin while extracting information directly from EXE file.
For me this technic always helped to extract lost SCX/sct, VCX/vct and FRX/frt files.
But in her case the recovered .scx file does not contain methods code, though they are seen compliled in the objcode. Do you know how to regenerate method code from compiled version?

Ever use the FoxDoc? Does anyone still use the documenting wizard to generate text files for all screens, etc?

This was an old habit of mine, that I ran the doc wizard everytime I rebuilt a new executable file, and it really came in handy for situations like this one.

If DOC has been run, there will be a SCT file (with all of the generated headers, etc) in the DOCS or SOURCE folder, which can be copied, compiled and used when an un-backed up screen goes south (or gets hosed, whatever the acronym you currently use. I have been able to recover several complicated forms which I thought were lost.
