Is there a way to create a WWC_RESTPROCESS as a class in a classlib to benefit from the code editor with isolated subroutines and dropdowns to select between them? I'm a bit new to VFP and we just purchased Web Connection to make it easier to get a database that I have access to only via a 32-bit OLE object into a web service. Thanks!

Thanks!

Nope... You can't inherit in a visual class from the non-visual wwProcess class.

If you're new to FoxPro though: In the FoxPro editor use the Document View (Alt-T-D) to help you navigate large program files with many methods.

Oh my goodness, thank you so much for the tip! Was really hoping for something like that and just hadn't run into it yet. I intend to read the entire VFP CHM file and a copy of the Microsoft Programmer's Guide for 6.0 but have obviously not gotten to every part yet!

By the way, is there still a version of the Web Connect CHM help file available? I really prefer that format for offline browsing and searching. I am often on a train (twice a day and then even longer twice a quarter) so offline documents are huge for me.

Thanks again for the help!

I've got a CHM from version 7.28 which I think was the last one shipped. LMK if you're still interested in getting a copy.

Pretty sure it's not 7.28 - I haven't shipped a CHM for a long time (I think with 7.0 or maybe even 6.50 I stopped).

I think what I'll do is publish it online so people can download. Problem is if you download it'll require unblocking most likely.

My latest is 7.26, I can see it in the What's new section.

I've uploaded the CHM version of the help file. You can find our where to download it here:

Offline Documentation - Web Connection

No PDF file as of yet - have to see if that still works as the file is too big.
