Fix defect visual Class

[HENDRIKB]

HI,

I need to fix a visual class. I know what's wrong with it (just member-object with fontsize = 1), but Foxpro says "Error loading File", and just doesn't open it.

So how can open it "low level" and change that wrong value?
The Text-editor will crash the file completely.

I Could generate a Class-definition-prg file and change it there. But how do i get back from there to a visual Class ?

Has anyone an idea.

thank you!

Hendrik

Librairies are just tables with a different extension. Use your librairy like a table and go to the offending record and change it.

use mylib.vcx
browse

Hendrik,

Just to add to Mike Gagnon's solution .... take a backup of the VCX and the accompanying VCT files before you start. If you're careful, you won't need them, but it's sensible to be safe.

Mike
