Hi Tracy This gets stranger. I revisited the form as after I sent the email I had a thought about a possible solution. Tried it without success. Then I thought "I am using the same ideas on another form" as there are three different types of Purchase Order with otherwise totally different requirements. The other two worked OK what was different. The faulty one had the textbox at the top. On the good ones the textbox was down at the bottom. Moved the box, did not touch the tab order or anything else and now it works OK. I can't explain that.

Perhaps a NODEFAULT call when you have a valid PO returned will correct this behavior. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Peter Hart Sent: Tuesday, August 04, 2009 8:24 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: R: VFP9 SP2: Form caption strangeness I have a similar problem with a text box. The employee enters the first number of a purchase order and a form opens which allow him/her to either carry on typing or select from a list the purchase order they want to edit or view. In the key press the code calls the model form. On closing the form saves the PO. no. In a global object. The calling form searches for that PO. and then populates the form with the PO details. The last thing it does is fill the text box with the PO No. Whenever they search the text box fills with the 1st PO. No on the system. Watch in the debugger and the textbox has the right value in it then as you leave the Key Press method it reverts to the 1st PO No. I have had to leave the problem for now but will look at it again when time permits or someone comes up with a suggestion.
