Hi Brian, I've looked into it in the past to do it from native foxpro, but it prooved to be extremely difficult. There are some API calls and structures needed as well as a callback function that's called which is almost impossible to create. Having said that..... In .NET ist's extremely easy to do, so I've created a class in .NET which can be used in VFP as an ActiveX control where you can set some properties, and implement code in the event that's triggered. Available for download @ http://www.sw-software.nl/Downloads/tabid/61/Default.aspx (FileMonitor). A demo on a VFP form is included.
