Thanks, Jarek
I tried moving that code plus of_Open() to my open event, but it still did
not work for me. I feel so stupid <s> I'll try comparing the PFC7 Quick
Start application to the PFC6 one later on today using PBDelta.
Regarding the funny order of the events - It is probably either your
connect to the database, your MessageBoxes, or some Yield()/of_wait() code
related to your splash window that is allowing the queued-up posted
pfc_postopen to execute out of its assumed turn. Pfc_postopen gets posted
at the top of pfc_w_master's Open event. So it is raring to go whenever it
gets a chance.
Here is a list of such things that may allow queued up events to execute
out of (assumed) turn: MessageBox(), Opening a "response"/"modal" window,
Yield(), of_wait(), database connect, external DLL/API call, (or anything
that would cause a wait state).
Whenever debugging tricky things, remember that "You cannot observe
something without changing its reality" <bg>... So, rather than using
MessageBoxes or Debug mode, try using the PFC Debug/Spy service, or the
6.0+ Profiling Tool. In addition, you can try Title =+ 'x' tricks, or
PBDebug=on in your [PB] section of your PB.ini file.
Have fun,
~Sharon
