>I have just begun a project at my work designing, of course a database using foxpro. I have disigned the user interface screens and am now ready to begin coding. Problem: I have never coded in xBase. I have coded in C++ however, and understand classes and inheritance, but just getting started is my main problem any advice would be helpful in creating my MAIN, and any other comments that may be helpful.

In VFP, there is no real 'MAIN'. They way you designate the entry point is through the project window where you designate a particular file as the Main file (i.e. Set Main). If this file is a .Prg, the program actually starts before any procedure statements. You can also designate a form as the 'main'. While you can create objects programmatically, I have found that working with Visual Classes a lot less of a headache when using private data sessions on a form.

Hope this Helps,
