Is compiled EXE clipper program, a class library? OLE?

How do you want to use it in FoxPro?

If I understand correctly what you are trying to do, you cannot simply add your Clipper EXE (or any EXE) to the VFP project and have it executed as a VFP program. You could shell to it via the RUN command, or if it is a COM object (Pete's question) you could instantiate it and control it from within VFP. I'd be surprised, though, that Clipper supported creation of COM servers.

Having been a past Clipperhead, and now battling with VFP6, I can sympathize with your problem. But...
You cannot just stick clipper code (.prg's) into a VFP6 application. All clipper screen output is incompatible since it is DOS based. Some of the @say's sill work, but the windows coordinate system is not the same as Clippers. And, many clipper commands do not exist in VFP6 and will not be resolved. There is no OrdSetFocus() and all the DbStuff() is gone. So, you have to disect the code into available VFP6 comands. The good news is that you can create a program file (a .prg) and include it in the VFP6 project, and if written using the correct VFP6 code, it will run just fine. But be careful of sending output to the screen (or window as may be the case)
