The form C is linked to a property in form A and is not going out of scope since form A is still active.

The problem is coming from form B WindowType property: if it's marked as Modal, form C won't appear after form B is closed. If it's marked as Modeless, form C will appear.

Even stranger, if I trace the program with the debugger, everything work fine (even with form B WindowType = Modal). But outside of the debugger, it won't work.

Is this a VFP bug (or feature :) )?

TIA

>It sounds like you have the scope of form C tied to a memvar that only has scope of the method in FormA that creates it, so it's destructing right after it's created.
