I'm glad I'm not the only one who ran into that <g>. I made essentially the same change (VFP 8 was choking when TRANSFORMing an object with an empty format code). I wasn't in the mood to do any more testing earlier this week, so that's about where I left it. Have you run into anything else? I know I was able to compile my app. OK in 8.
