>>I've started a new project from scratch. WHenever the project is opened I get a message "apphook class loaded...". I have no idea what that means.
>>Despite that, I've done some initial work on it, and its been coming along. I tried a compile on it, and it completed. However, now when I run the program (either the .EXE or interactively) I get a SYNTAX error right away pointing to my "DO FORM XXX" in my main program. I don't understand what's going on. My main.prg contains almost nothing except some variab;e declarations, and it had been working fine.

Yes, it would, if your are going to use the application wizard, you have to do things the way the wizard expect you to do things. It also create an object (APP_GLOBAL) that contains the methods to use when calling forms. You cannot do it the 'regular way'. I would suggest if you just started, start your project over with no wizard. Because people found that unless you want to study everything that the wizard created, it would be much simpler.

Mike... I thank you SO very much. You've been most helpful, and I cannot thank you enough. This site has been so very helpful through the years.
Thanks again, Mike.
