Stuart,
Tried that but to no avail.
However, would like to highlight that for the purpose of faster screen starts,my app has an invisible modeless form on startup that opens the most frequently used files in that form under a private data session.
I've noticed that since I used this method, all my forms have a problem of not getting refreshed with records appended in another PC until they have done an append / delete on their records.
I've tried flush after saving, set refresh to 1,1 in the open tables method of each form, even issue a locate and go bott to move the record pointer but still it does not refresh.
Apparently each form will contain the status of records at the time it is opened and will only refresh if an append to delete has been done in its data environment or nothing from the network gets updated to this form's tables.
Weird.
Could it be an XP and VFP6 problem?
