One of the VFP programmers up in one of our Dalton facilities has reported the following.

Platform - Windows 95
VFP 6.0 SP5

He's hitting a Win2K Advanced Server which launches a PeopleSoft application via Citrix WinFrame. While this is running, the message in the title will appear if he opens and closes VFP twice (occurs after the second QUIT). He's not doing any exception starting VFP and quitting to replicate the problem.

Now from what the Dependency Walker tells me, VFP does not directly reference GDI.EXE (which is a 16 bit application). It does reference GDI32.DLL. However, in researching this I ran across some information that indicates that Windows 95 still references GDI.EXE for certain objects (brushes, bitmap headers, pens for example).

Does anyone know if: A. This is a VFP problem? and B. Is this the case with any other versions of Windows after Win95?

tia,
George
