Hilmar,
Category is VFP7.0 <s>
_VFP.top ~.left ~.height ~width are the whole foxpro window
_screen.top ~.left ~.height ~width is the area inside vfp what is not caption, menu, toolbar or docked window
(IOW this what gets printout after
_screen.show
?'Tirallala'
)
GETDIR() can now call the box you can call with API to get all elements you see in Windows explorer.
