>>Problem:
>>I have 2 seperate programs that run simultaneously and reacts to each other, and, both run timers. Now, when I run cppTimer on both ... no timer functions are avail. However, if I run cppTimer in 1 program and the VFP Timer in the other, all's fine.

>>>P.S. By the way, Larry's _Screen.ActiveForm.MyFunc() worked. Had to use a macro subst. though:
