the contained objects are created. (I was expecting to find a form .Init().)

Open the Class Browser in VFP from the top menu.

Hit the 'Open' icon on the toolbar.

In the open dialog change the file type to 'Form' and open your SCX.

On the Class Browser toolbar hit the 'View Class Code' button (beside the binoculars). This will open up a .PRG with the code that would programmatically create the form.

iirc the code generated by the Class Browser does not always proper screen-object hierarchy - so the code will not always run without quite a bit of intervention.  There was talk of someone re-writing it but afaik that didn't happen.
