Naomi,

I believe I have tracked this behavior down to the built-in grid highlight bar functionality in MM. I found that if I close a form where a grid has focus and I have other forms open I could duplicate the behavior. If I set the lsethighlightbar property to false on our grids and turn on VFP's own highlighting then I don't see this behavior. I think I will just change our base grid class and not worry about trying to debug why this is happening with the framework's built-in functionality.
