Ron,

Just to add to the thread for other's reference I have the exact problem. VFP 6.0 app being recompiled in VFP 8.0 getting a "compile error" with no indication of where the error is. I get this if I "recompile all" but not otherwise.

The weird part is that this file is the only source containing these definitions. Having discovered this I basically removed these two lines from the file and.....it works like a charm again. Once the workload decreases I will try to determine why this is happening.
