>Are you saying that READ EVENTS do contains OUT OF MEMORY problems if too many windows are opened but Foundation Read won't? Are there any work around (I don't think by limiting the number of windows open is a solution.).

I never put some code to check that in my framework.

I guess the same goes with Word and other applications. The user can open as many documents as he wants but might end up with "Insufficient memory" after the 25th documents. :)

The foundation read contains its disavantages as well. One is that it will make your application run and look slower because when the ghost form is on the screen, the user has the impression that clicking on it will give access to the form immediately but has to wait because the setup code will reload again, etc.

I don't know any programmer using this technique in Visual FoxPro. We requested that for years and Microsoft did it in Visual FoxPro by putting the READ EVENTS.

The power of READ EVENTS and a foundation read is certainly not the same.
