For the crust, stir together the flour, sugar and salt. Cut in the butter until mixture is crumbly. Spread the mixture into the pan, and press firmly. Bake for 20 minutes.

Prepare the filling while the crust is baking. Mix together the eggs, corn syrup, sugar, butter and vanilla until smooth. Stir in the pecans. Spread the filling mixture evenly over the crust when you take the crust out of the oven.
