how to create a listing of all variables used in a program?

[gjbroek]

Hi,

When programming I use all sorts of variables. Some for testing, some for eternity (...?).

Is there a way to list all variables used in a project? Perhaps together with the location (form / prg / menu / etc.)?

This would make it easier to clean up my code, once completed.

Regards, Gerrit

Check out the documenting wizard. I haven't used it recently, but its predecessor used to offer a cross-reference for variables and fields.

Tamar,

It still works!
Thanks, Gerrit

If you're in VFP8 or 9 then try the Code References entry on the Tools menu. It will search all the files in the project and show the lines of code which contain that word. It even searches properties in form and class libraries.

You can also use it for a global search and replace to tidy up things like names which were good when the project started but which are now misleading.
