Albert,

In my particular situation, my code is in an order edit form in the on after 
start EEP.
The var lookup list view object sits on top of a regular db edit object.(this 
is due to space on the form)
Because we can at times have multiple invoices for the same order, I have the 
var lookup list view.
Comp_inv is the component for the var lookup list view.
Comp_oinv is the db edit.
As you can see I use the visible true and false based on whether there is an 
invoice in the table.

RECALC VAR
SELECT COUNT(*) INTO vci INDIC ivci FROM invoiceheader WHERE Control# = 
.vcontrol
IF vci = 0 THEN
  PROPERTY comp_inv VISIBLE 'FALSE'
  PROPERTY comp_oinv VISIBLE 'TRUE'
  PROPERTY Comp_icap CAPTION 'Invoice# and Date: '
ELSE
  PROPERTY comp_oinv VISIBLE 'FALSE'
  PROPERTY comp_inv VISIBLE 'TRUE'
  PROPERTY comp_inv READONLY 'FALSE'
  PROPERTY Comp_inv LISTOPEN 'TRUE'
  PROPERTY Comp_icap CAPTION 'Click to Print Invoice: '
ENDIF
RETURN

There are some settings in the individual computers that can cause this, I have 
found. Have you tried using the VISIBLE properties in additioin to the others?

I have some issues over the years where a popup would hide behind another form, 
this always seems to be computer specific.  It was a compiled app running on 4 
or 5 computers but only one would have the issues

I sent this earlier and was wondering if anyone has any “Blues Clues”?
I deleted the var lookup listview and recreated it just to see if that would 
help.
It helped on some computers but not on others. Why would the same object on the 
same form act differently on different computers?
This is the first time I have seen this type of inconsistent behavior.

We have the latest build of the 9.5 and use a compiled application.
All forms and reports are not embedded in the application nor is the CFG file.

In a form, I put a var lookup list view object on top of a db edit object so 
under certain conditions one or the other is visible.
The code showing the objects under the conditions works.
However the var lookup list view EEP (even the hint) would not work on certain 
computers at our office. It did work on others.
So the code making the objects visible worked correctly on all computers but on 
some computers the EEP and hint did not work.
It seems the object was acting like it was in a read only mode.

I checked to see if there were any stray CFG files. I did a reload and no 
errors showed.
I am using the PROPERTY commands to make the objects visible or not.

My question is this.
When having objects on top of one another, are there PROPERTY commands (like 
READONLY ‘FALSE’) you should always use?
Any other suggestions that will make sure this erratic behavior is avoided?
