I found this tool on the VFP ProFox downloads page called CLUE. The description mentions:
"Class Library Utility Extension - A tool I started back in '95 with Tom Rettig. Never got around to incorporating Tom's prg2vcx into it." I actually downloaded CLUE - and attempted to use it - and confirmed that it won't actually do the PRG conversion to a VCX. So, I'm now trying to create my own inhouse tool to automate the process of converting our system from PRG's to (in my case) Forms (SCX). I created this Basic Form that has a Dummy Title. So, the 1st thing I am trying to do is just get my tool to read the title in a PRG I want to convert (I got the proper title) - then update the Properties field in the proper record in the SCX (and I got that working too). As such, the Caption item in the properties DOES get properly updated with the new screen Title. However, if I then open the Form - the title is "garbage". Instead of my title wording (in this case "Purchase Order") - which should be Centered on the Form - instead, what's displayed is the word "Label1" - and its sitting in the upper left corner of the Form! But, if I go back and look at the Properties field - it looks FINE! Now - here's the REALLY WEIRD part. If I go into properties - and, let's say - I simply change the Width item - but, change it right back, like doing an Edit and then an Undo. Now, if I close the SCX - and open it as a Form - the Title is now correct and centered. JUST by the act of editing the properties field without ACTUALLY Editing it! Anybody have a clue as to what is going wrong. Its driving me NUTS - and I would Really like to get this thing to work - as I know when I show my Boss what I got working - he will be SO THRILLED!!!
