VFP 6 Starting a testing session 2

[eric43]

I use this code which I think Geoff gave me a while ago - with a variation for each of my projects - each shortcut to a similar prg for each project starts them nicely when required - I colour code the background to help in stopping errors

*-- Startup program called to load Project abc
*-- development environment 
*-- Clean everything up 
CLEAR MEMORY 
CLOSE DATA 
CLEAR ALL 
CLOSE ALL 
SET SYSMENU TO DEFAULT 



*-- Make the screen green-on-black with a  title 
WITH _SCREEN 
   .BackColor = RGB (0, 0, 255) 
   .ForeColor = RGB (255, 0, 0) 
   .FontName = 'Courier New' 
   .FontSize = 10 
   .Caption = 'abc  Development' 
   .cls 
ENDWITH 

*-- Go to the development directory 
CD 'D:\DEV\_Foxpro\Projects\abc'
? curdir()
*-- Set F12 to run this program 
PUSH KEY CLEAR 
ON KEY LABEL F12 DO _backup.prg

*-- Open the abc project ... 
MODIFY PROJECT abc NOWAIT 

*-- ... and activate the Command Window 
ACTIVATE WINDOW COMMAND

As I very often type 'do main' when the Command Window opens can I add that to this prg - ie write it each time the project opens?

Many
thanks

Just add it as the last line of the program:

*-- ... and activate the Command Window
ACTIVATE WINDOW COMMAND 
Do Main
