That is what I tought as well but;

I just openned VFP, created dummy form without any fields, run it and then
closed it normally.

So VFP is all clean; nothing is in any way connected to this form, yet
memory reference still stays.

All you can see in memory is standard VFP mems - and that form reference.

How come ?
