Hi Jim and Andy,

Grid maintains it's own current record. While focus stays in the grid, it expects only that record to be "dirty". If new record is added or non-current record is changed and left "dirty", it can put the cursor into incorrect state. The error doesn't show up right away, it'll show up later, during attempt to save another record. The error may never show up if that "dirty" record becomes the current record in the grid, grid corrects the state of the cursor.
Error 2072 is new to VFP8, in this scenario, VFP7 reports error "File is in use by another user."

This behavior is by design. However, If you can provide repro scenario that doesn't fit into the description then most likely it is a BUG and I'll be glad to have it fixed.

Thanks,
Aleksey.
