Sure, you edit the source code and then recompile it..

i am new at this, i have a vlx file how do i view or edit the source code?

[rkmcswain]

A .VLX file is the result of compiling the source code (.LSP, .DCL files, etc.).
You need to find and edit the source code, then recompile it to a VLX file.

if i sent you a VLX file could you fix it to work on any system?

[rkmcswain]

No. The vlx file is the result of compiling the source code. It's a one way street. If you want a modified VLX, you have to modify the source code and recompile. There is no way to edit a VLX directly.

That is what I was afraid of.

Thank you for spending some time to help me understand. have a great weekend.
