Since I'm not sure what SDI (strategic defense initiative?) stands for I'm going to say no.

What happens is I have this little form that tells the user to put a CD in their drive and click ok to go find a file on the CD. When the user clicks OK the getfile dialog should appear they go find the file. The dialog and my little form should release at that point. What is happening is my form is releasing without showing the getfile() dialog. But yet the code order I use is:

thisform.cFile = getfile('DBF')
thisform.release()


Any ideas?
