>Running an exe under IDE doesn't exactly behave the same way when it's run from outside. I create a shortcut on desktop and/or quick launch and run from there. IDE is also open as another task. I can check exe and make changes in project, test individiual form/prog etc in IDE and when ready, exit from exe and recompile project for next go (but I do recompilation rarely and generally work with individual form/prog etc).

Thanks Cetin - My memory is that VFP 6 and pre XP systems seemed to allow it. Thanks again!
