Hi dragan,

Thanks for your reply, but I can't help there still is a bug.

See details of my case.

It occurs when SET STATUS ON (as oposed to SET STATUS BAR ON) and only when there is code in the init of the form.

I can't see the relation to your situation below. I'm not using ?? anywhere in my program and SET TALK is set to off, so there should be no output to the form anyways. It prevents the form being instatiated to appear but is listed in the windows menu, while other forms continue to work as advertised.

I can't see why the behaviour should occur with SET STATUS ON and not with SET STATUS BAR ON

It certainly is a bug in my eyes. It was VERY difficult to track on what is going on here.

Walter,

You can't possibly expect that the mechanism of console output would be written from scratch, not to use any of system services, to prevent the behavior of ctrl+s to toggle scrolling on/off. I wouldn't expect that to be touched ever, it's too deep in old code.
