Give Users a Great Menu and Toolbar

摘要

You've upgraded to Visual FoxPro 9 and convinced your boss that having the latest version is so critical to your project, he really had no choice. Now you've rebuilt your application and the first thing out of his mouth is "Why doesn't this look like Microsoft Office?" Sound familiar? Even with all the great new features in VFP 9, many of them (such as the new report architecture and SQL updates) are developer features you have to exploit to demonstrate their usefulness to customers and managers. So your application, even with the latest and great- est version of FoxPro, still reminds users of Windows 2000 or Windows XP (with theme support). Meanwhile they run their Office 2003 user interface, extolling the virtues of features such as transient menus and toolbars.
