Hi Fernando, It is nice to be mixed up with Doug. I take it as a high compliment. FoxBin2Prg is another fine tool for this I guess, but I use Beyond Compare to do the file and folder comparisons and it has VFP2Text already built in now for years. Just part of the automatic processes I use to compare files whether VFP source or something else. No fuss, no muss.
Like Ted, every developer in our company has a license and we all love and rely on VFP2Text, and the great thing: if we want an enhancement, we ask our team mate Frank if he will make it for us. <g> Rick White Light Computing, Inc. www.whitelightcomputing.com www.swfox.net www.rickschummer.com -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Fernando D.
