Bob,

Thanks for the information. I'll see if I can track Christoff down and check with him about this.

Having made the move to VB.NET years ago, you probably won't see me at a VFP event since my conference session content these days is skewed toward .NET topics UNLESS it's a "Migrating from VFP to .NET session" :-). FWIW, this bug is occurring in one of the last remaining VFP applications that we actively support.


>I believe there was a discussion by Christoff as part of one of his conference sessions at SWFox last year about this (I did not attend the session), I believe you may actually be able to get to embedded source in this mode, even if it's refoxed, and he was recommending having the report previewer in as an out of process exe. You may want to contact him directly because I'm fuzzy on the details.

>>Here's a winner that I recently had a client report to me. In an EXE created from VFP 9 SP1, if you press the Alt+Enter keystroke while previewing a report the Report Expression dialog pops up. Clicking the "..." button on the dialog gets the user access to all kinds of files, locations, etc., NOT a good thing. Anyone else come across this? Any work around? Trying ON KEY LABEL ALT+ENTER * generates a syntax error BTW.
