Title:
Newbie: how to keep form from immediately releasing?
Environment versions
Network:
Windows 2003 Server
I am sure this is a simple one, but the VFP 6 training I just finished (Appdev/Booth) never seems to mention how to keep a form active in a runtime environment. In the training, everything was done from a command window.
In my menu code I execute a "DO FORM formname NAME whatever LINKED WITH param". This syntax was created by the VFP conversion wizard for a 2.x project. I have scrapped the pageframe-based formset that it created, and created a new form without pageframes. But when my code executes the form, the form disappears. I tried making the form Modal, but that had no effect. Is there something I have to place in the menu code just before or after executing the form? Something else??? Maybe the LINKED clause is my problem?
TIA,
-Mike
