I have been assisting a colleague with a VFP3 -> VFP5 conversion and found that we get errors in the 5 version where none were encountered before. When traced, we found that there was inconsistent behavior with regard to setting and resetting datasessions programmatically (admittedly not recommened by MSFT) but worse than that, a very complex multilevel local view functions only intermittantly. Seen anything like these?
