Hi Jean,

The reason for the buttons turning white is that in VFP8 the buttons have .BackColor and .DisabledBackColor properties that did not exist in the previous versions. You will have to set those colors yourself.


The Citrix Client may not display the same number of colors (depending on its settings - for example 256 colors only) as VFP, so you will have the color changes. You may want to choose the simple colors that displayed under Citrix correctly.
