Hey there Gene - U Reynard U! Thanks for the Chuckles - its always nice to get some humor here at my Boring Day Job...
And - yes - I was facetious - but, I totally agree with you. If you can make good prog's in VFP - and they just WORK - that's a GOOD THING! About 2.5 years ago I built this nice VFP app for a client of ours, it was Stand-alone, and it was for Ecommerce order processing. It worked so well - they used it for like 1.5 years and never said BOO! I thought they weren't using it. Turns out they WERE - and it basically Worked! And, 1.5 years later, we heard from them since they were looking to maybe have me make an upgrade so it could handle another Trading Partner (but, that never worked out). Anyway - thanks for your input. I hadn't thought about Setting STEP ON within the Release Method. Sounds like a good idea - and I'm going to give it a shot! -K- -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Gene Wirchenko Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2013 4:12 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Silence & Problems Releasing...

I used the exact same command for the Inquire Mode - and All I can think of is multiple references to the object. >it Does shut down the screen.

The current method will have to finish first before the next event will fire. I suggest that you put a set step on in the release method to see if it is firing. I have found that stepping through code that has screen effects sometimes results in different behaviour with Refresh being particularly nasty for this. >What Gives? Anybody seen this before?
