Every once in awhile, both at home on Win98SE and here at work on Win2K Pro SP2, when I switch from another application to VFP 7.0, I'll start typing and hear a ding. When I look at the screen, nothing's been typed. I then have to click somewhere in the VFP window for it to start getting my input.

I assume that upcoming service packs or release 8 will remove that new "feature" from the product. :)
