Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, butter, and salt. Mix until the dough forms. Press the dough into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish, making sure to evenly distribute it. Bake the crust for 15 minutes, until it is lightly golden.
In a separate bowl, mix together the corn syrup, brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir in the chopped pecans. Once the crust is done baking, pour the filling over it, spreading it out evenly.
Bake the pecan pie bars for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set. Let the bars cool completely before slicing into squares and serving.
