 Last reviewed: June 4, 1996

The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Macintosh, version 3.0b
  • Microsoft FoxPro for Macintosh, version 2.5b

SUMMARY

FoxPro for MS-DOS allows the user to place libraries into a project as as an INCLUDE file, but FoxPro for Macintosh automatically excludes libraries that are added. However, FoxPro for MS-DOS projects will typically build without error in FoxPro for Macintosh.

MORE INFORMATION

If a project containing an included library is brought from MS-DOS to the Macintosh, the project will build without error if the library filename includes a .PLB extension. If the default extension was not used, an "API Library not found" error message will result. In Visual FoxPro, the error is "API Library is not found."
