Hi!

Hmm, Win95 had a nice neat bug - after some clicking on the Shift key it kept hold down status for all application even when realy is not pressed. The same is for Alt key. For example, in such case when I try to click on the icon on desctop it just selects or deselects it instead of program running. When Alt 'holded', it opens property window. The worst thing is that you cannot fix this by other ways than just restart Windows.

Just check if you were not in such case when you did found this behaviour. My users never complained about multi-select list boxes, so it works ok in VFP...

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs

It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
