I had a similar problem where '.T.' was being echoed to a form. I spent several hours debugging, checking, testing etc., and I could not find a sensible answer. However, you could check that the form doesn't have it's own private datasession, as SET TALK will be directly affected by this.

In the end I had to insert 'SET TALK OFF' immediately before the command that created the echo. This was not the perfect solution but it was the only way I could prevent this irritating echo !!!
