- Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, version 6.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY
=======

Visual FoxPro for Windows version 6.0 now ships the source code for the Visual
FoxPro builder applications. The source code for the Visual FoxPro builders is
contained in a file named Xsource.zip.

NOTE: Microsoft does not support the modifications to the source code of the
Visual FoxPro builders. Modifications done by the user are at the user's risk
and constitute no obligations or warranties, either expressed or implied, by
Microsoft.

MORE INFORMATION
================

The Xsource.zip file is located in the following folder:

  \VFP98\Tools\XSource folder

How to View the Builder's Source Code
-------------------------------------

1. Unzip the files in the Xsource.zip file, using the UNZIP -d parameter to
  preserve subdirectory names. You may select the folder where the Xsource.zip
  file resides.

2. A subdirectory named \vfpsource is created.

3. Several sub-folders are created and one of them is named "\Builders",
  (without the quotes) and it contains the following folders and files:

When opening the projects for the various builders in the \Builders folder, you
are prompted for the location of files that the Project Manager cannot find.
Most, if not all, of these files are located in the \XSource\VFPSource\Wizards
folder that is created when the Xsource.zip file is unzipped. The
\Wizards\wzcommon and \Wizards\wzcommon\bmps folders contain many of the files
that the Project Manager cannot locate. You can also look in the related
subfolder under the \Wizards folder for the builder project that you are opening
for files that the Project Manager cannot locate. For instance, if you are
opening the Formbldr.pjx project, the Project Manager may not be able to locate
the Shadowed.bmp file. Locate this file in the
\XSource\VFPSource\Wizards\Wzform\bmps folder. Use the Find utility in the
Windows Explorer if necessary to find missing files if they cannot be located
easily.
