Try GoFIsh. Way faster than code refs.

Subject: Code Ref Tool is Broken...

Hello there Fellow Pro-Foxers!

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a good weekend.

So, I've been having this REALLY Weird problem!!!

I was recently trying to run the Code References Tool - but, something Odd 
happened. As in - Nothing happened! And, I tried it a bunch of times.

Now, at the time - I had this particular project opened on my screen - and I 
wanted to obviously search it. But, it was a No Go. Then, last week I tried it 
again - but, I was in a different session of VFP, and I was trying to do a 
search on a Different project. When an odd thing happened - I got a warning 
saying this other project was already opened. And, indeed that project was 
opened in another session of VFP. I was like - WTF - that makes no sense! So, I 
went into that other session of VFP, closed down that project - and SURE Enough 
- when I tried to open the Code References Tool - instead, it literally just 
opened up this one project.

It just didn't seem to make sense. So, last week I was looking into this 
problem - searched the issue on the web - closest I got was a response by 
Tamara suggesting that this person recompile the FoxRef project. This was the 
link to the person reporting the problem:
     
https://www.tek-tips.com/threads/vfp9-code-references-problem.1639205/<https://url.us.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/1oC2CpYRqkunk5ART2uGfGw6GQ?domain=tek-tips.com>

I actually DID try and recompile the FoxRef project, but - it turns out I got 
an error where it could not properly read one of the forms. Even when I tried 
to directly open the Form - I could not open the file.

But, I figured I would try something - and, I WAS Indeed able to actually Run 
the FoxRef App - and I WAS able to actually do searches. However, it's weird 
that I have run the App directly instead of from the menu system.

I was just looking around A LOT in the VFP Help - but, can't seem to easily 
figure out how I can see if a menu system somehow got corrupted. Which seems it 
Must be the case. I even looked around to see if maybe the FoxPro config file 
got corrupted - but, I already found out there is NO Config in use.

So, if anyone can give me a pointer on how to fix this problem - that would be 
awesome!

-Kurt
