>>2) What is the READ EVENTS really doing?
>
>READ EVENTS can be thought of as an endless loop, waiting for user input.
>
>Your main program - which might be called main.prg or something similar - consists of three parts:
>
>1. Any setup code that should run on startup
>2. The single line, READ EVENTS
>3. Any cleanup code that should run when your application finishes.
>
>Any setup code comes before the READ EVENTS, cleanup code after the READ EVENTS.
>
>The READ EVENTS waits for user input (menu selection, click on a button, etc.); when processing of that user input finishes, Visual FoxPro goes back to the READ EVENTS, to wait for further user input.
>
>You can break out of the READ EVENTS with the command CLEAR EVENTS - for example, when the user gives the menu command "File | Quit".
