Hi Lincoln ---

When you go to edit the Form in the Form Designer, check what's in your dataenvironment and check to see what the RowSource value is in that Combobox. Blank 'em both out if there is a value. Then try a COMPILE FORM.

>Using the query wizard,I foolishly created a cursor that I tried to use in a form as the record source of a combobox. At first I got an instantiation error then the dreaded "you have performed an illegal operation" message followed by VFP closing down. When I re-launched VFP I realized I did not need to be doing this to accomplish what I was trying to do so I deleted the Query from my DBC. The problem is now when I run the form the query cursor (it looks like a browse window) appears and has to be closed before the form runs. I don't understand how this can still be appearing after it has been deleted.
>I have tried validating, recovering, rebuilding, etc., but I can't stop the cusor from appearing. Please help!
