Sanjay,

>1. We use combo to select/display code&description. In VFP 7 compiled source the width of second column is increased by few pixels. In some cases it leads to extend the combo drop down out of form also.

Is it possible that the machine you are testing on has got some differences in some of it's Windows display settings? For example it's set to Large Fonts? Or it has had the width of scrollbars increased?

>2. In Grids we have to use '&' character in header text, in VFP 7 it changes to '_' underscore like hotkey although no behaviour as hotkey. For e.g. 'C&C' changes to 'CC' where second C has underscore display like hotkey. In Multilanguage it may change the whole meaning.

You have to convert all instances of & to && to prevent Windows from seeing the & as a hotkey marker. And since && is the start of an end of line comment you'll have to convert them with code like

.Caption = strtran( .Caption, '&', '&' + '&' )
