Jack: I've been using VFP9 and have had this happen quite a bit. I traced it to this: When running a form in the VFP environment I get an error. If I save the form, it will save some of the methods in the wrong place. Ie: the init code will be in the click code and the click code will be in the init. Initially I would save the form and have to go back and move everything around.
What I do now, is when I get an error when running a form, I quit FoxPro and start it up. The form will be fine when re-opening FoxPro. It appears to me that the index of the form gets messed up when there is an error. I have never seen this is VFP7 and I have it under control in VFP9.

Jack, Whatever it is it certainly won't get fixed in VFP8. I gave that up as a lost cause a couple of years ago and reverted back to VFP7 which was much more predictable and stable. Zorder getting changed randomly, objects suddenly moving behind other objects for no reason even though you use Force to Front, relationships between files not refreshing in grids as they should, List boxed not behaving properly...the list goes on etc etc. At least the shortcomings in VFP7 were fixable with programming workarounds. Change to VFP9. You know it makes sense.

Good Morning All: Well I got burned again with missing code in click events associated with command buttons. During Saturday's game the app that was running the user could not select certain game events because the compiled code from the method code was missing. In fact, this morning when I checked the .scx there was no code in methods nor in the objcode. I did what was recommended by deleting the objcode and then do a complete compile. And, luckily, before I did this I did a complete backup to my backup harddrive. BTW, the code was in the backup was there when I checked it this AM. There are something like 140 objects on this form that all have click events. There are is no way I can check the program from top to bottom every time it is recompiled. Is the form too complex with all the objects? So my question is when does this code disappear? And how to the rest of you deal (cope) with this? I have been writing VFP code for 8 years and FPD code since 1.03 not to mention FoxBase before that and have never had this situation occur before now. Thanks for any help.
