I've been doing VFP as long as you and maybe longer. That is not relevant, if the behavior can be demonstrated outside of VMP. Drew showed me it happens.

grdBase/xxfw.vcx UIEnable comes before the tooltip assign. It also explains that the UIEnable of a grid in a pageframe fires before the form.load. Drew considered that a bug. It goes on to SET TALK OFF if necessary.


I have been doing VFP since VFP came out. The length of my experience in not relevant, but that fact that in
all these years of publishing VFP applications I have never come across this means that the behavior is avoidable.
And that IS relevant. The framework is setting up an environment which is causing or allowing it to happen.


I just traced it through from the DoForm to the UIEnable. What TALK stuff are you seeing between those two places?


I posted yesterday that SET TALK was being set to ON automatigcally when i stepped into DO FORM. Somehow I got placed
into pgfBase.PageCount_Assign where TALK was on.

As I said, the solution here was to put SET TALK OFF on the DE.BeforeOpenTables of each form. This to me seems to
be a workaround for something that I have never had to deal with before.
