SUMMARY
In FoxBASE+, the CREATE VIEW FROM ENVIRONMENT ALL command creates a view that includes the active databases, indexes, and the values specified in SET commands.



MORE INFORMATION
A view file is a useful tool during debugging and testing. During the debugging process, the current environment can be saved in a view. If the testing process changes the environment, the application can restore the environment from the view before continuing execution.

Specifically, CREATE VIEW FROM ENVIRONMENT ALL creates a view file that contains the following information:


 * All established relations between open database files.
 * All fields contained in the SET FIELDS list.
 * All database, index, alternate, and format files currently open in all ten work areas.
 * All filters in effect for open databases.
 * All ON/OFF switch settings.
 * The ON ESCAPE and ON KEY settings.
 * The DEFAULT AND PATH SETTINGS.
 * The procedure file settings.
