IMO, it is not. Look it up instead of guessing or moping about
it. (I have my share of things that do not work MY way, too.)

I prefer to quote the manual, rather than putting my
interpretation on things. I have seen too many misstatements. A
recent one here was that private and local variables have the same scope.
I just had the same or a similar problem to yours.
close all
clear all
did not work.
clear program
did. This only happens occasionally. I do not know why it happens,
except that I believe it only happens when I have been using the
debugger and it has gotten hairy. (Not exactly a precise
description, I know.) It has happened with various versions of VFP.
I would like to know what causes these situations.
Years ago, I had a few problems where my code was not
working. In one case, after about two hours, I had figured that
there was no way that my code could be doing what was happening. I
was right, too! It turned out that my latest code was not
compiled. No, it was not a case of set development being off. I
compile far more often than I should ideally have to, because
tracking down non-existent bugs is so time-consuming.

It does not clear the screen either.

My opinion is apparently worth more than yours then. My
opinion plus *only* two dollars Canadian will get you on the local
transit system.
