Well, I don't share your opinion, since the view DOES work within VFP 8 (when created in VFP7). The bug is that the checking mechanism thinks the macro substituation is a syntax error, while it is not.

Two of my reported bugs have been confirmed:
BUG: Object with negative .left proptie still visible Thread #751331 Message #751331
BUG or feature: Transparent checkbox not transparent Thread #751821 Message #751821

I confess that they're not that serious but the other bugs:
Poor picture quality in VFP & Terminal Server Thread #751827 Message #751827
BUG: visual side effects with native gridbar Thread #750841 Message #750841

Are more irritating in that it has negative effects on how the user interface is shown to the user.

Walter,
