PowerBuilder – PFC file, resize, and string services
Although the PFC provide a wide range of capabilities, it can be a very tedious task to ‘strip out’ a specific piece of functionality for use in an ‘non PFC’ application. Here are the objects and modifications you need to do to strip out the File Service, Window Resize Service, and the String Service.

Modifications to pfc_n_ds: Comment out the following: //n_cst_dssrv_multitable inv_multitable //n_cst_dssrv_report inv_report //n_cst_dssrv_printpreview inv_printpreview //n_tr itr_object //public function integer of_settransobject (n_tr atr_object) Alter the following methods: pfc_printpreview, pfc_ruler, pfc_zoom, pfc_pagesetup, pfc_pagesetupdlg, pfc_accepttext, pfc_update, of_checkrequired, of_setmultitable, of_setreport, of_setprintpreview, sqlpreview, dberror, retrieveend - comment out except for return values of_getparentwindow, of_getparent - comment out debug service stuff

The way I did this was to copy the objects from the source PFC pbls into a set of application pbls (PFE.PBL and PFC.PBL) and then edit the source to make modifications where needed.
