Controls the display of available data type and other items when implementing strong typing, for example, when declaring LOCAL myVar AS using the LOCAL command. Types can be core intrinsic elements such as strings, numbers, and Visual FoxPro and COM classes. For more information, see How to: Implement Strong Typing for Class, Object, and Variable Code.

Types

Lists items and data types that can appear in the AS clause list box for certain Visual FoxPro commands. An asterisk in the third column indicates that the Data field for that item contains script code in the IntelliSense table. To hide an item from the list, clear the check box next to the item.

To sort by column, click the column header.
