Michael, In VFP 9 you can write a projecthook QueryModifyFile event method call to check if you are modifying a class library. This event was not triggered for class libraries prior to VFP 9. The default behavior is to open the Class Browser. You can intercept this to display your own class library opener utility which displays the classes in date order. I have an example of the projecthook on my Web site. It optionally opens HackCX Professional instead of the Class Browser.
Another approach would be to create a Class Browser add-in that "sorts" the treeview or creates another user interface element like a list view or grid to show the classes in timestamp order. The Class Browser already displays the timestamp information, so adding it to the project description might be less useful. There is a project called ClassBrowserX on SednaX (VFPx) which you can get involved with. This team is extending the Class Browser. I think this type of add-in would be useful.

Last modified class in VCX library Rick, Just a follow-up thought to this: I don't use the Descriptions comment for the files in the project much at all (perhaps 5% of the time). I was looking at ProjectHook PEMs thinking that I could write something to simply throw the current date/time into the Description comments field for that file. I see the QueryModifyFile Event but that fires BEFORE the file is edited. I don't see one that fires afterward. If there was, I could add the code there and I'd get somewhat of what I wanted (...it wouldn't show in timestamp sorted order, but at least clicking on an object would show the timestamp from when last modified!). What do you think....possible and worthwhile? Or even if we had some sort of ability to add a right-click function to the project object to show the last modified, or even extending that, showing the edits made on that object from the source control system? Now that's getting a bit involved, at that level. --Michael _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
