TD_Cmd.zip (10k)
Top-Down Commands - The benefits of using Top-Down Library in Alaska application development is well known. Top-Down Commands (TDcmd.ch) adds further to it by converting frequently used Top-Down functions into commands, which are Clipper look alike. It also reduces codes by defaulting/auto calculating some of the required parameters. It is free and only Top-Down Library prgs are required.
