Rich,

Just some troubleshooting guesses...

In general, running a Form under the FoxPro _Screen object can leave certain things unresolved or still in existence when it exits. IMHO, it is always better to run Forms exclusively As-Top-Level or run an In-Top-Level under as As-Top-Level only.

Do you have Public variables?

Do you issue a RETURN at the end of the .PRG?

Make certain you close the DBF or SQL connection(s), etc. Maybe issue some of the other 'CLEAR' commands in addition to Clear Events.

HTH,
