Hi,

I'm trying to compile (and build) a VFP project (parent) from a wizard also constructed using VFP.

At one point, the wizard is done adding stuff to the parent project and I would like for the parent project to be recompiled and built into an exe. I'm issuing the following command:

BUILD EXE "C:\test.exe" FROM "C:\test.pjx"

I always get ERROR 1001 (Feature not available)!!!

How, if it's possible, can I get VFP to recompile another program from within another exe?

Btw, here's what I found in the help files:

To build an executable file

In the Project Manager, choose Build, then in the Build Options dialog box, choose Build Executable.

-or-

Use the BUILD EXE command.
If you include the STANDALONE or EXTENDED clauses of the BUILD EXE command, Visual FoxPro generates a "Feature not available" error message.


I scanned the help files under the "BUILD EXE" topics but there are no "STANDALONE" or "EXTENDED" clauses!?! What should I make of the above help topic?

Thanks in advance, Steph.
