It is integrated into intellisense and gives You all the editor enhancements we had in earlier times and much more. Did it ages ago by now and could not live without it anymore. Every time I do some .NET development, I go knuts and think I *must* do this for .NET as well Tod,

As I recall, he was using it to create C# classes.

In earlier Foxpro-versions, that hotkey was Shift+F10, but then MS Windows assigned that one as the keyboardway for the Shortcut-Menues. That's why we got SET MACKEY to assign our own hotkey. Greetings from good ol' Germany! Hi Tod,

Great tip. Somehow I missed that in VFP8. Most of my projects went from VFP7 to VFP9 -- so I admit to being a little fuzzy on the some of the cool things introduced in version 8. Some other cool little tidbits include (from VFP8's new feature listing): # Typing WS in a program (.prg) file opens the Select dialog box for choosing a registered XML Web service. XML Web services are no longer added in code using a type, for example, LOCAL oWS AS myWebService. # Typing ZLOC in a .prg file displays a list of available local memory variables and parameters. The complete lists IntelliSense scripts is located in FoxCode.dbf. Wow Mike! Great tip. Somehow I missed that in VFP8.
