cetin,
thanks a lot! finally i can make forms and transfer it to fxp, then my application becomes flexible on different client scenarios.
i had this problem though:
i have created a myclass.vcx that contains the clsform (a form class).
the clsform has only a label with caption "can u see me?".
i have created a standard form named "testform". the testform has a button to call an object of type clsform.

myform1 = newobject('clsform','classprg.fxp')
myform1.show()

the form just flashes and is gone.

i want it to show up by not making it modal form.

pls. help...

>>nice one!
>>a) how about converting the vcx to prg (is this a utility/function to do this)?
>>so that it would do something like this on my myform.prg:
>>DEFINE CLASS MyForm AS Form
>> PROCEDURE Click
>> = MESSAGEBOX('MyForm has been clicked!')
>> ENDPROC
>>ENDDEFINE
>>
>>b) when the definition of the class is done on the prg. then i compiled it so i can use the fxp, how do i use that class inside my form's button.click()?
>>should i do this:
>>do myform.fxp
>>myform1 = createobject('myform')
>>myform1.click()
>>
