Hi Lauren,

I believe that it's a bug because it breaks BINDEVENT() documented behavior. Don't know about VFP Team take on it though. You may want to contact MS PSS to find out for sure. You've 2 free support incidents included with purchase of the VFP9.

The RAISEVENT() - with parameter object "fix" is not nearly as clean in our use case, and in fact, I will have to forgo loose-coupling altogether in some cases.
