Hi Kevin -

Are similar changes necessary to the cFormMgr.GetFormCount() to prevent counting the SDT Form when getting a count of all open forms. Without the following code, I seem to always have one form open (the DBCXMGR form):

CFormMgr.GetFormCount()

Changed…
IF TYPE("loForm") == "O" AND ;
UPPER(loForm.BaseClass) != 'TOOLBAR'

To…
IF TYPE("loForm") == "O" AND ;
UPPER(loForm.BaseClass) != 'TOOLBAR' AND ;
TYPE('loForm.lAutoCenter') == 'L'

Best,
