Yesterday I wrote about it too.
I repeating the text from that thread :

Ha-ha-ha! Welcome to FoxPro! It does not work!

On couples of my forms I have a visual OCX controls (drawing graphs). What is the _VFP.activeform if one of that forms is activated? No, not form, but OCX control!!!

_VFP.activeform.Name = "oleFlowRateGraph"
_VFP.activeform.windowtype = ... ERROR, Crash ...

It makes me sad, but out of my control :-(((

Fisrt of all, the program is old and big, and I can not redig all codes and remove all SetFocus() call from everywhere and be sure that it will work.

And second, our customers often have an IT department, that have a ability to write some special codes on events, specified in our system. (I will not dig in to save our time). I can not tell everybody : "Never use SetFocus() - it will crash our product!".
