The Boston Computer News Network was an email newsletter sent out by the
Xbase Special Interest Group of the Boston Computer Society. Les Pinter,
the organizer of that group, commissioned a group of local volunteers to
come out with a FoxPro-specific version of the newsletters. The timing
was great
I'm reviewing my logic once for for saving user login passwords. In all
cases, I'm using Craig Boyd's VFPEncryption class. In one app, I was

Murphy's Law on Estimating:
Original guess, next unit of measure times two.
So:
a 5 minute job takes 10 hours.
a 2 hour job takes 4 days
a 3 day job takes 6 weeks
a 2 week job takes 4 months
etc.
Probably a lot closer to accurate in most cases. ;)

Check the scope of memory variables used by the codes that were moved
to the procedure file.
Maybe there were duplicates or whatever Use PRIVATE and even LOCAL to limit
them if necessary to avoid name conflicts.
