Re: Possible VFP 8 Bug Involving Collections (For Each)

[MichaelHawksworth]

This is an artical posted by Randy Pearson that pretty much details the above.

While I haven't tried it I would guess that adding your own 'get' methods would work as well.

Michael,

Thanks for posting this.

When I first read up on the new collection class, I understood that the correct way to obtain the object reference was to use the implied Item property, which would overcome this supposed bug.

From that, I'm not sure whether the behaviour described is really a bug, or the result of accessing the collection in an incorrect way.

In any case, I would think that using Item would be easier that writing a Get method (or an Access method).
