Alex,

If you've got to read the vcx to get the descriptions then you may as well just use the classloc field.

Custom properties can't have default comments.

The VFP BaseClass property descriptions are stored in vfp6enu.dll (or other language specific dll) you can read the plaintext out of the DLL pretty easily using the LLFF. Browse it using hexedit.app and do searches for the property names.
