I think that the help is incorrect. If you take a look at foxtools.fll you'll will see tha there are quite a few functions with the names longer than 10 charactes. The most known of them is GetFileVersion.

>According to the Documentation (VFP 6.0+), "Function Names" in FLLs are supposed to be no more than 10 chars long.
>
>I'm currently creating an FLL to interface with a DLL that has function names in excess of 50 characters.
>
>I started to use the same funtion names in the FLL as in the DLL, before I was aware of the 10 char restriction. However, it seems (in testing) that there is no problem having FLL function names that are 50+ characters long.

>Does anyone know if this is more than just a documentation error (before I dig myself too deep a hole) ?
