I use the ON SHUTDOWN event to do housekeeping if the application is closed. However, it appears that the event is not triggered if the application is closed due to the user logging off from, or shutting down, Windows. Therefore, I plan to work with BINDEVENT.

>>I have an application that indicates whether a user is logged into it, and if a record is being modified. When the uses closes the application, it updates the online status. I discovered that if the user logs out of Windows, the VFP application is forced to close, and the online status remains unchanged. Is there a way for VFP to detect whether the user is logging out of Windows, or shutting down, so that it can perform its cleanup?
