What VFP version you're running?

I've noticed that Vista randomly decides to have what appears to be a DirectX failure on the outside of the form by halfway drawing the border and titlebar, but all it does is leave a non-updating artifact around the form. My interim solution is to leave the borderstyles set to "Sizable", then setting the Min/Max properties for Height and Width to match the defined size of the form. Obviously that's a bit painful and doesn't result in the desired form appearance.

If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
