Hi everybody,

We have a pageframe with 9 pages (the 10th page is removed by security in run-time). Each page has a container, which is instantiated the first time the page is activated. One page that is called "UB" brings a modal selection form. You select the record on this form and the container inside the UBContainer is instantiated. Now, if you just close the form, all objects in cntUB are made invisible, and buttons on the top of that container are made disabled. So, the user should be able to click the UB page again and get the selector form again. However, this is not happening. The focus is already on that UB page and trying to click on that page doesn't bring the selector form. Pressing Alt+U doesn't activate the page either but rather Utilities menu. The only way out is to select another page and then go back to UB page. In this case the selector form shows up.

So, is this a bug of the pageframe, when page could not be re-activated when there are no visible or enabled objects on it? Is there a workaround?

We tested this form in VFP8 and VFP9 and the behavior is the same in both versions.

Thanks in advance.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
