The problem I face is FormA has a timer that fires regularly, and sometimes my program terminates without a reason if my form is set to showwindow state of 2.
I use showwindow = 1 and my program continues (allows me to goto other forms), but then my main vfp window doesn't close when I exit my program with a command button. Its like catch 22, I don't know how to terminate the vfp main window while in showwindow = 1, and I can't use showwindow = 2 because my program sometimes terminates unpredictably. I even put _screen.release in my quit button while showwindow = 1, but it makes no difference the vfp main window still stays up. Any solutions????

thanks
