OK, what you need to do is this:

1) In the BeforeOpentables of the DataEnvironment, add a property "FileOpen".
2) In the error method, set that property to .F.
3) in the Init of the form:
RETURN thisformset.DataEnvironment.FileOpen

It may still work in the Load, too. (just checked, it does work here, too)

Essentially, you're moving your error property to the DataEnvironment, not the FormSet at all. FormSets seem to have a very strange instanciation order with the DataEnvironmment, no wonder I've never used them.
