No. Strong typing is implemented in VFP 7 for Intellisense and type library generation only. You can do the following:
local nCount as integer
nCount = 2
There is nothing to prevent you from assigning .F. to nCount later in your code. However, the cool thing is if you do something like the following:
local oWord as Word.Application
oWord = createobject('WOrd.Application')
When you type
oWord., you will get a complete list of available PEMs associated with the Word object. This makes for far greater productivity when accessing object hierarchy.
HTH.
