You don't need to "run" the form. I have the difficulty when I have a class in the baseclasslibrary.vcx being used by a commonui.vcx, which I have put on a form. The baseclasslibrary.vcx does not close. I don't run code in my development session. I launch a second session with a custom config.fpw that launches the full program from code. > > And I think that issue is related to why stuff won't compile until you > issue those commands and sometimes not even then. > > Folks are right about using a separate instance of VFP to compile or debug. > The reason I don't do that is because I get "access denied" if I have a > project open in the first instance that the second instance tries to open > again.

I prefer to get the "access denied" when I attempt to open the project a second time. > Ken Dibble > www.stic-cil.org > I have written some code that loops through the _vfp.activeproject.files collection. It will open each vcx as a table, then issue a Clear Class for each class in it, close the vcx, issue a Release Classlib, then attempt to open the vcx as a table exclusively. If it doesn't I set a flag to run a second pass. The second pass I process the classlibs in reverse. If it still fails on a classlib, I use macro substitution to modify each class, then close it without making any changes. This takes about 5 seconds total on my workstation. I usually never hit the third pass. It also only modifies the classes in the classlib that does not open exclusively. When I wrote this, opening my integrated source control project took just over 1 minute. Since the SourceSafe files have been moved to a new server, opening the project takes 8 to 10 seconds.
