I know about the bug in vfp6sp5. In vfp7sp1 the bug is gone. I'll post it in the wishlist.

>>I discovered the sysfunction sys(1029,x). It was introduced in vfp3, but it's no longer documented since vfp5 I believe. What it does? Do a browse of a table and notice that the menu is extended with a pad named 'Table'. However, this can be changed to a pad named 'Browse'. Both menus have different content! Actually, I like the feature because the default (Table) offers more than I want to offer the users, where the Browse menu offers a 'safer' menu.

>>Why is it no longer documented??? Is this a documentation bug? Or must it really be regarded an undocumented feature that may be removed in a future version?
