Well...  The programmer who wrote this system only allows one screen to be
visible at a time so there is no way I or the user can get to another
screen.  In fact, he shrinks/expands the VFP main window around each
programmatically in the init().  There is no menu, just a main form with
command button.  

I'm thinking it may be something buried somewhere inside the FFC.  I asked
the user to get a screen capture of it the next time it happens.  

Did I mention how much I'd like to re-write this system?   Lol

Thanks for the suggestion!

Lou

Lou,

Sounds like there is code validation on the form. 
Make a change on the screen without touching that combobox, then change the
focus from the screen to a second screen (if you have an MDI application).
Then click directly back onto the drop down. If you are able to reproduce
the error this way, it sounds like an event (When, GotFocus, Valid) is
firing off a validation and the data is not available since the event sees a
different datasession. One of the oddities of the Fox.
