Naturally? The forms which the Form Wizard creates are based on a framework (set of classes) that is woefully inadequate for practical purposes (or at least, it was so until VFP 6); it can still help to show you how some things might be solved.

you will be better of creating your own framework, or getting a third-party framework. The latter option will save you lots of work; there are both commercial and freeware frameworks available.
