Hi
The program work well in runtime (except inputbox typing, that btw, it work on other computers).

I have the problems on design mode.

Look another example, I try to change Vfp file locations on tools>options, I don't see nothing in list, and nothing when I type inside the inputbox.

Thank you

Thank you
