I forgot to say.... .. removing the object code forces VFP to regenerate it.
Unlike the .fxp recompile scenario which seems to confuse VFP sometimes (leaving the original compiled version there and not regenerating a new version) .scx/vcx files are generally well behaved and get overwritten by a compile all. .fxp's can be really stubborn and even an individual recompile of the .prg will not regen a new version unless the .fxp is removed first.

As Al says, delete all the .fxp files first. Also, as I sayd and if you are careful and know what you are doing then remove all the generated object code from the .scx files. Note that if you do this and you don't have the source code then the .scx and/or .vcx will become unusable and result in error as both source code and generated object code from the source code is held in the .scx/.vcx. If the original writer has removed the source code and you then remove the object code you end up with nothing!! Make backups first!

You may need to close VFP then delete them Nope. The issue happens even on a start of VFP with a clean compile.
