Tamar - I don't know about SP2 but SP1 it is very easy to produce.

Open a report - reposition an object or other change - close the report using the close button x in the right corner of the screen. It will error out

or

Have a form and report open at the same time. Make a change to the report then close the form and then the report and you will get a not a file type of error or the system will freeze up when you close the report.


I use Ctrl S all the time to try to prevent this but at time when I forget I lose everything I entered or have to use the task bar to clear the application.


I have not moved to SP2 hoping for a SP3 version and then I can change all my installations.

>>I can open VFP and from the command window type: modify report report1
>>report1 pops up and then I change focus back to the command window, leaving report1 open in the report designer
>>from the command window I type modify report report2
>>Now report2 shows up in the report designer and I have report1 and report2 side by side
>>Now I make a subtle change in report 2 like changing the position of a control by 1 pixel to the left or right.
>>Now I change the focus back report1 leaving report2 open
>>Now I close report1 which leaves only report2 open
>>Now I close or try to save report2 and "File is Not Open." pops up and now I can't do anything in Foxpro and have to end task VFP.

>>I can't imagine what would be different on my side if you can't reproduce. I can get both my desktop computer and my laptop to bonk following these steps!
>>
>>I run into this bug fairly frequently because I'm often copying multiple report objects from one report to another and then BONK, now the 20 minutes I've spent working on report2 are Lost!

>Tried again with your more detailed steps and can't replicate. It must be either something about your environment or the reports. Can you replicate it with two brand new reports and not much in them?
