Remarks
Addition of Visual FoxPro libraries (.FLL files) and applications (.APP files) do not call the QueryNewFile event.
Since this event does not directly add files to the project, if you wish to add other files when QueryNewFile is called, you should do this explicitly with your own code, using the Project Objects File Collection Add. For example, you could do this if you wanted the QueryNewFile event to call a Wizard, which you created, when adding a new file of a specific type.
Example
_VFP.ActiveProject.Files.Add(mynewfile)
