It works if you bind to "_SCREEN", not "_VFP".

[Update]

But not everytime. :(


>Hi, guys, got an interesting one here. I'm trying to adjust something everytime a different form is activated without having to put code in the form class. (Trying to do an observer kind of thing.) I figured I'd bind to changes to _SCREEN.ActiveForm, but it doesn't seem to work. Here's my test code:
>
>[code]
>
>ON KEY LABEL f12 clear events
>
>o=CREATEOBJECT("TestBind")
>BINDEVENT(_vfp,"ActiveForm",o,"HandleEvent")
>
>o1=CREATEOBJECT("form")
>o1.Name = "FirstForm"
>o1.Caption = "First"
>o1.Show()
>
>o2=CREATEOBJECT("Form")
>o2.Name = "SecondForm"
>o2.Caption = "Second"
>o2.show()
>
>READ EVENTS
>
>RETURN
>
>DEFINE CLASS TestBind AS Custom
>
>PROCEDURE HandleEvent
>
>DEBUGOUT PROGRAM()
>
>ENDPROC
>
>ENDDEFINE
>[/code]
>
>Any suggestions? For that matter, I'll really want to do this when using a top-level form as my background, so ideas about what I can bind to there would be helpful.
