Notepad and VFP9

[paul1941]

Hello all

I'm using Notepad for some reasons from VFP
Is there a system to call Notepad, OPen, All files in one time?

regards, Paul

what files? try:

oWS = CREATEOBJECT([WScript.Shell])
lnFiles = ADIR(laFiles,[FULLPATH\*.EXT])
FOR lnFor = 1 TO lnFiles
    IF NOT LEFT(laFiles[lnFor,1],1) == [.]
       lcCommand = [Notepad ]+FULLPATH+[\]+laFiles[lnFor,1]
       oWS.Run(lcCommand, 3, .f.)
    ENDIF
NEXT

Paul,

Are you saying that VFP is using wordpad rather than the VFP editor when you modify a .prg? If so, you need to look at your configuration file. Do you have TEDIT set to wordpad?

Paul,

I am not sure what is the reason you use Notepad, but depending on your needs, you might want to try VFP's native MODIFY FILE instead - it opens text files much faster (and much larger files, too) than Notepad. You can use a similar loop with ADIR() to open them all, if you wish.
