I believe I saw your question or similar question asked on a Russian VFP forum by Vladimir Maximov. Let me try to search for it.

Sorry, it's hard to search without Russian font. The only thing I was able to find is http://forum.foxclub.ru/read.php?28,285965,285965#msg-285965 but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with this problem. Perhaps I'm wrong and there was not a similar question...
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
