Here's a sample project that shows the behavior I'm having. https://github.com/Tracy-P/vfpmemberclass

run foxbin2prg on the pj2 with the * as a parameter.

I don't see anything out of place in the SCX. I do see the classlibrary is showing as an FXP.

Thank you, Tracy

I've run into similar problems in the past and it's usually a missing or mis-named property. The error message implies this is a VCX-based class? If so, do you have a copy of Rick's HackCX tool? I've found that to be really helpful when trying to hunt this down.

I have an established class library and I'm wanting to now update the base class properties MemberClass and MemberClassLibrary. I have created the appropriate prg based Column and Header classes.

A form or class that uses the changed baseGrid class works fine.

A form or class that uses a class that contains the baseGrid is unable to load that class.

Let's explain the hierarchy. baseLibrary contains baseGrid, and baseContainer

moduleLibrary contains a subclass of baseContainer that has a baseGrid in moduleTransactionsDetail. This moduleTransactionDetail class has additional controls like buttons and labels for use in multiple places.

Error loading file - record number 233. moduleTransactionDetail <or one of its members>. Parent : Cannot add this object to a Grid

All the class libraries and forms will build without errors. Attempt to modify them, or run them and these errors occur.

Does anyone have suggestions why these would be failing?

DEFINE CLASS basecolumn as Column

fontname = "Segoe UI" fontsize = 10 name = "column"

HeaderClass = "baseheader" HeaderClassLibrary = this.ClassLibrary

ENDDEFINE

DEFINE CLASS baseheader as Header

fontname = "Segoe UI" fontsize = 10 caption = "header" name = "header"

ENDDEFINE

I did find I needed to put the name property in the PRG based class to get the first layer working.

Thank you, Tracy

GoFish may be able to do this replacement.

I believe I found my problem. I need to update the Properties of the baseGrid to set the name of Column to be BaseColumn, and the Methods to correctly reference the new names. Then I need to update the Class to baseheader, and the Parent to reference the new column name on the records that are headers. The other controls in the column also need the Parent updated.

With 200ish grids in the project in both ClassLibs and Forms, I'm going to see if I can find and replace a lot of these with some code.

Thanks for making take another look at the tiny details.

That's one of the main reasons the code is in git source control.

Thank you for the reminder.
