>>I have 'ON SHUTDOWN DO ShutDown_Proc' in my main. I later do an 'ON SHUTDOWN DO oapp.Shutdown_Proc()' in my toplevel form object. What is good coding practice for the ON SHUTDOWN. Should it be in a .prg?

Guess I should have given more info. I was on the phone with my client and she started the software and got into what I call "ERROR MESSAGE HELL" (she was copying some data files from CD and did not remove the read-only attribute so she got the can not update cursor error). The error messages went on forever so she Alt+Ctrl+del, selected the task, and end task. She then tells me that she got a "shutdown_proc.prg missing" error and that she has gotten it before. I do not know if it was the first error message but definately she was still in the main (not the toplevel form SHUTDOWN). Anyway, I tried to reproduce the error but evertime I try to end task it works fine. The ShutDown_proc is a procedure in my main.

What do you think? Could some other first error during the end task get the program confused and not be able to find the ShutDown_proc?
