One of the best things about getting into Thor is its built on top of VFP. Everything (almost) is a PRG and metadata lives in tables which we all know how to debug and manipulate. You like the Thor behavior for any tool out of the box; just use it as is. Want to customize things to your preferences; itโs all there for us to change the way we want. Kudos to Jim Nelson and Matt Slay as the progenitors.

Well, I know the tools menu is _MTOOLS I found out - if I run this command: ?PRMBAR('_MTOOLS', GETBAR('_MTOOLS',14)) I actually get this as the results: Code References Which is good. Now, when you said - "how-to for adding a custom menu to the standard sysmenu" - did you really mean adding a custom menu ITEM? As I did manage to add a menu item already. And, using that Same technique - I can Force the "Code References" menu item back to the way it should be. But, yeah - if _FOXREF contains what VFP is trying to run - I should be able to simply print out the value in that variable - to see what it is running. Correct? Cause - if I do it now - it holds a blank value. Which does not seem right... ________________________________________ From: ProFox on behalf of Richard Kaye Sent: Monday, May 19, 2025 4:33 PM To: mailto:[email protected] Subject: RE: Code Ref Tool is Broken... Reading documentation; always good times. ๐ Per the Help the thing that gets run from the standard VFP menu is stored in _FOXREF system variable. I know Jim had a whole how-to for adding a custom menu to the standard sysmenu that was driven out of Thor. Just don't recall where... -- rk From: ProfoxTech <mailto:[email protected]> On Behalf Of Kurt Wendt Sent: Monday, May 19, 2025 4:10 PM To: mailto:[email protected] Subject: Re: Code Ref Tool is Broken... Yes - RK - I have been spending HOURS in the VFP Help file today - trying to track down how to look at what VFP is trying to run when I try to run Code Ref from the Tool menu. But, so far I can not find an answer. Also, I think other strange things are happening. I actually turned to my new Best Buddy Claude for assistance. But, so far - striking out. A Lot of the things he is suggesting is not working - even things that VFP help says should work a certain way - is not. I WAS - using the help of Claude - able to Add a New menu item under Tools. I essentially had it run the original FoxRef.app - and that works. So, I could add GoFish to the menu that was. I'm just frustrated that I can't seem to determine what is happening when I use the current Code References menu item. It's VERY Frustrating! Ugh... _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: mailto:[email protected] Subscription Maintenance: https://url.us.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/wUN6CXD70rIXAp2DcrHwfWZK-8?domain=mail.leafe.com OT-free version of this list: https://url.us.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/WJxOCYEQnyCLYGMpCwIPfxhFTd?domain=mail.leafe.com Searchable Archive: https://url.us.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/tF6rCZ6wozh5vOl8CmSGfB_Laj?domain=leafe.com This message: https://url.us.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/e2G6C1wYnGUMgv3BUkTgfVidub?domain=leafe.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
