>>I've got a closeable form which works fine until I make a call to GETDIR(). When the user selects a directory, and is returned to the form, all is well except for the fact that the close button in the top right-hand corner is now grayed-out. Anyone have any experience with this? Thanks for your help.

It seems not to be a VFP problem: When I got home today, I ran the code on two of my own machines and could not duplicate the problem. At work, however, all our workstations are afflicted with it. Our site has a very homogenous setup. All PC's have identical hardware and, in most cases, software. While this makes maintenance easy, it makes problems like this very difficult to debug at work. Thanks for your time and your help.
