Hi Michel,

Sorry for lack of clarity. This is the code:

if wexist("hugform")=.T.
       hugform.release()
endif

gives the error

1923 object HUGFORM is not found

wexist("hugform") does evaluate to .T., but the object can't be referenced.

Although wexist() treats a form as being a Window, "deactivate window" doesn't seem to work for closing forms.

Maybe Vladimir's class method is the only way to do this, but I'm not used to OOP, so this is non-intuitive for me!

Cheers

John
