Contrary to what the help documentation says, error 2005 will arise when there is a problem opening up tables or views in the data environment of a form. I created the situation you created and got the following error message:
The Error Number is '2005'.
The Error messages are 'Error loading file - record number 5. FrmDocList_grid
.Loading form or the data environment : Error loading the data environment. Table is in use'; and 'ERROR LOADING FILE - RECORD NUMBER 5. FRMDOCLIST_GRID .LOADING FORM OR THE DATA ENVIRONMENT : ERROR LOADING THE DATA ENVIRONMENT. TABLE IS IN USE'.
You will have to avoid the situation that is causing you program to fail.

Really is odd though... the four forms all were based on my dataentry form class... my app object runs a menu that has options to open those 4 forms. I then intentionally opened another VFP instance and opened the tables concerned exclusively. Now, when I go back to my original VFP instance and chose to run the form this error 2005 comes up.
Let's say Form A opens Table A and so on. Everytime I open Table X exclusively in another instance, running Form X would generate 2005! IF I close Table X which was opened exclusively, Form X would then run OK...
