No, the client wants to stay in VFP6, and that's what he owns. I'd also be afraid to move it, who knows what else might break.

Anyway your post, prompted me to try it in VFP7, and I get the same problem. So it wasn't a VFP6 problem. So I just restored the whole set of source code and classes from a backup CD from a coupole of years ago, and now it works, so something must have been currupted. It's easier to just put my changes from last week back in, than to figure out what was happening.

Now I've got it working I have to go work on a customers data, which has corrupted data files, and is causing the program to hiccup somehow.
