SUMMARY
=======

The Professional Edition of Visual FoxPro allows developers to create executable
files by using the Project Manager. However, several FoxPro menu options and
their commands are restricted outside of the FoxPro environment, so they can't
be used in a Visual FoxPro .EXE file. This article lists the non-restricted and
restricted Visual FoxPro menu options
