I am almost finished writing a scanning utility to highlight all references to date/time functions in prg files across a whole disk (or from a specified directory). If anybody is in the same situation as myself where I have not been with my employers long and there are thousands of prg files on the networks which have been written by 'junior' style programmers (or 'hackers' as they call themselves). This function will create a list of 'nnn Date file references in ...prg" to be imported into a FoxPro file. Anybody interested, let me know.
