I see the problem now, and I sent it up the line.

It works OK if there is a space in the SKIP FOR prior to the first .F., but if there is not, the SKIP FOR is omitted. If I use the SKIP FOR below, it will happen. I didn't see it before because your posted SKIP FOR had the extra space.

IIF(EMPTY(ga_trns[1]),.F., gn_ModMode <> 2 OR TYPE("pl_stkdisp") = "U" OR NOT pl_stkdisp) ;

You can fix this by editing GENMENU.PRG, in the AddSkipFor function. I changed line 1250 from this:

IF ATC(".F.",GETWORDNUM(m.skip,1)) # 0

to this:

IF ATC(".F.",GETWORDNUM(ALLTRIM(m.skip),1)) = 1

and it seems to work fine for me. Please note that I HAVE NOT TESTED THIS EXTENSIVELY, but I think my logic is OK. Alternately, you can leave Genmenu as it was, and include spaces in your SKIP FOR prior to the first .F..

The problem is we should only drop the SKIP FOR if the .F. is first, not if it is anywhere in the first word.

Thanks for sending this through!
