Hi Dragan ---

>Inlist sounds like calling for trouble (what if in VFP7 we have a jukebox or any other newbox class).... mmm, why not do like this:

Hmmm...the problem stems from toolbars and menus not respecting the fact that the form has lost focus and hence the control has not lost focus. Have you tried this code?
