Auto Table/Field/Variable Names
The Auto Table/Auto Field/Variable Names functionalities of IntelliSense's list of field names in the open table is referenced by typing USE or USE + the alias in the Command window. The information in this drop-down list consists of table names or field names, depending on the reference.
When you type a table-related keyword in the Visual FoxPro Editor or in the Command window, the Auto Table/Field drop-down list displays the valid members in the current context. As you type or tab through the list of fields, a Tip window displays the type and width of the field in focus.
The following table lists the Auto Table/Field keywords:
| Keyword | Function |
|---|---|
| USE | Shows tables from the active database and MRU tables. |
| REPLACE | Shows fields from the table, cursor, or view in the currently selected work area. |
| MODIFY MEMO | Shows memo fields from the table, cursor, or view in the currently selected work area. |
| MODIFY GENERAL | Shows general fields from the table, cursor, or view in the currently selected work area. |
In addition, you can type "m." in the Command window to view a list of all declared variables in a drop-down window. When you select a variable, its value is displayed in a menu tip.
