Visual FoxPro Name Creation
Data containers and some parameters to commands and functions require a name. When you create a name in Visual FoxPro, apply the following rules:
- Use only letters, underscores, and numbers.
- Begin the name with a letter or underscore.
- Use 1 to 128 characters, except for field names in free tables and index tags — those can be 10 characters at most.
- Avoid words reserved by Visual FoxPro.
File names follow your operating system's conventions.
