Thanks,

Good news is that X# in its current version is mapping TEXT/ENDTEXT to

an internal function... See personal communication regarding the command

with Robert.

TEXT .. ENDTEXT is also parsed and send to a function with the name

"__TextSupport". That function is not included in the runtime yet, but

if you include that function in your code then it works.

So in short, this will be supported by X#, the internals are just not

yet implemented, but will be with the final release of VFP support.  If

somebody interested, it can be developed by a community member as part

of the opensource runtime...

Regards,

Johan.
