What the help doesn't mention is that when you're in VFP you can refer to the application object with the system variable _VFP. So use _VFP.Autoyield=.F.

>I understand the concept of the application object. However, I need to set the autoyield property of my application, and don't quite know how to do it. The same says: ThisApplication.Autoyield=.f. ---What is 'ThisApplication'? I know this is probably a very obvious question. Thanks for any help.
