>>I'm trying to make my opinion on the good use of the Autoyield property. I've come to the following conclusion: generally you should leave it to its default value (.T.). But if you have use an ActiveX control on a given form, you should set _VFP.Autoyield = .F. in its init() and reset it to .T. in its Destroy() . Do you agree with this simplistic approach?

Michel,

Same for Sheridan calendar widgets. With Autoyield set to .F., the refresh is *much* cleaner, and VFP does not miss events. Otherwise I had to put a WAIT .10 or something like that to be reasonabliy sure my AfterDelete, or AfterSave or other code would fire.
