Hi Tom

It depends. I'll ask again, what version of VFP are you using? As I told you, there was a bug in VFP 5.0 which caused this behavior. It was fixed in VFP 6.0.

Hopwever, if the class you are calling is a first level sub-class, and IT includes a DODEFAULT(), then it will force the base class code to execute. Do you have that situation?

If you do not fall into either category, then simply calling DODEFAULT() followed by a NODEFAULT in the instance will ensure that only ONE refresh occurs.

If you are seeing something different, then there must be something somewhere in your code (either the class, or the instance) that is causing it to happen because I can do exactly what you describe using base classes
