>>I'm using VPF7 and am trying to write a method on a form that calls itself recursively, something I have done before in VPF6. As soon as I put the open paren on the end of the recursive method call I get a C0000005 fatal exception error and VPF shuts down.

Pretty simple actually.

With IntelliSense on: Create a new method MyMethod in a form or class.

In MyMethod, type ThisForm.MyMethod(

As soon as you type the open paren you get a Fatal Error

Interesting though, you can call predefined methods recursively without this problem occuring.

Jim is right, it must be IntelliSense not knowing how to figure out the param list on user defined methods as it does not happen if you only type ThisForm.MyMethod with out a paren.
