FoxPro v2.5 + "allt()"

[FrothyByte]

Hello all,

I have been tasked with converting an old FoxPro v2.5 program to Java. Having ZERO exposure to FoxPro up until now, I have to get a handle on the very basics first.

For anyone who has seen FoxPro before, what does the "allt([STRING_VALUE])" actually do?

I can't seem to find a simple explanation on the web and I'm sure it is really simple but "allt" isn't really self descriptive.

According to http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dv_foxhelp/html/folrffunctions.asp (Yes, I know that is for VFP 8 but there really isn't a FP 2.5 msdn section ) the "allt" function doesn't exist.

Any help would be great.

Thanks in advance.

I believe that's short for ALLTRIM which is a built-in function that trims both leading and trailing spaces from a string.

This is based on VFP 9.0 help files.
