>So, are you saying to include "on shut down quit" statment in my setup prg or not? I'm getting mixed messages here about this.

If you want to exit out of the design time VFP, which you probably don't: using a CLEAR EVENTS will close an EXE when the starup program finishes up, or simply return you to VFP is called from the tool, this makes it easier to test.

If you used QUIT and tested from within the tool, you would need to reopen VFP after every test.
