Marcia,
-- No I hadn't received your emails and I had tried to write a GetWordnumber
function but the forms would not work right. But with the two lines you
said to add
SET LIBRARY TO ( HOME() + 'Foxtools.fll' ) ADDITIVE
IF ( AT( '(', .ControlSource ) = 0 ) AND ( WORDS( .ControlSource, '.' ) = 2 )
The program works just fine

-- Have you a popup form for selecting time?

-- I can't quite figure out to get to the underlying code in your examples, sometimes.
Finally, I realized that in project manager, I could select the classes tab, I then
get to individual things. But how do you turns each of these things into classes?

--Or, to put it another way, in my vfp 6.0 language reference, the examples to create forms,
use code like myform = createobject('somename'). Is there some way to toggle between the forms
as seen in the forms designer and the code (which is presemable behind them) as seen in
the vfp 6.0 language reference? When I have selected on of your classes - from
the calendar demo -- I then chose tools, class browser. A tree of objects appears but
where is the underlying code? It must be close by, somewhere?

Thanks so much,
Steve Elster
