I haven't looked into this deeply, but my first glance is that it is not easy to take a cdxml form and convert it to a "hand" coded form. Kind of like the class designer in FoxPro. You can view an scx form and view code and save it as a prg. I could imagine creating a form with the class designer and then saving it in coded format for adjustments and inheritance. -- Jeff Jeff Johnson j...@dcsoftware.com Phoenix Python User Group - sunpigg...@googlegroups.com _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: Dabo-users@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-users Searchable Archives: http://leafe.com/archives/search/dabo-users This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/4b588351.7020...@dcsoftware.com
