Randall,
The program can't find the BMP file. Did you change paths? Not include them when moving to a new computer? Luckily VFP will continue to run. Just to show you aren't alone, I installed an elaborate system at a client site and found to my horror that the BMPs that worked fine at my office were invisible at the client site. Picture me explaining why the form had 9 unlabelled buttons. "Well, the 4th from the right is 'Add', and the right-most is 'Exit the form' and the center one helps find a customer" :-))
