I've used RoboDoc <http://rfsber.home.xs4all.nl/Robo/> for such purposes. I simply tell it to look for comment blocks starting with &&**** and ending with &&***. One issue that you will have with any such program is the fact that they generally want plaintext source code files for input, and may choke on VFP objects. I wrote a little prg which walks through a project and runs _SCCTEXT on its files collection member. You can see it here <http://pastebin.com/XywfSKiz> (For some odd reason pastebin repeats the script several times, it's not really 24k lines long!) Disclaimer: I haven't looked at this thing in about a decade before today, but it still seems to run. If you use something like Paul McNett's scX to generate plaintext files for a source code management system it's output files could be used as fodder for RoboDoc too. -- Dave Thayer Denver, CO _______________________________________________ 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 Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/caao+qowcnzyqacwbhmuz++-ucb4kc7nuqcvfag+6omezjqr...@mail.gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
