FRX (Visual Basic Binary Form File) is a file format used exclusively to save design information for forms in the Visual Basic Integrated Development Environment (IDE). The FRX files are created when a form is saved as part of an .EXE or as an individual .FRX file. It contains compiled form information such as objects, labels, text boxes and its associated control properties.
FRX files are binary format and usually compressed and can contain one or more forms. There are typically three components of each form within a FRX file: code, other associated proprietary binary data, and text. The code may be in Visual Basic, C++, or other languages, while the binary data may help save records for a form in application databases.
Similar File Extensions
The FRX file extension is closely related to several others including the .FRM, .CLS, .VBX, and .VBP file extensions. While FRX files contain compiled form information and cannot be edited directly within a text editor, .FRM, .CLS, and .VBP files contain data that can be manually edited within a text editor to modify a project's runtime behavior.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .FRX) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .FRX extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .FRX file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .FRX extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .FRX extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .FRX file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .FRX file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .FRX file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .FRX file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .FRX file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
