About once a day, depending on how much I use Visual FoxPro 9.0 SP2, I see my form (whichever one I am working on) suddenly "freak out" and I can't save it properly. This problem causes Visual FoxPro to "hang up", so that my only choice is to end the program (VFP).

However, I have been able to recover from the mess-up of the Form. One of two things will happen:

(1) The Form recovers as VFP is closed.
or,
(2) The Form's Memo File (SCT) is saved as a "TMP" file, with random numbers for the file name. Example: "AB345678.TMP".

So, in the case of # 2, I rename the Memo File back to the Form's original name, and give it the extension of SCT. It seems that the main Form file (.SCX) never has a problem. It's always the Memo file (.SCT), which has the problem and sometimes is named with a random file name, with extension .TMP.

Is anyone else having this problem, or am I the only recipient of this problem? Is there any way to stop this from happening, such as some configuration setting?
