Yes you read me like a book, I've taken all the read events out except in my Main.prg, but still not moving to next form:
this is what the main.prg looks like
DO FORM c:\dsm\master.scx
READ events
with a command button on the form that reads:
clear events
thisform.release

As I click the first form I want to go into I have this:
DO FORM c:\dsm\balances.scx
and a command button that reads:
DO FORM c:\dsm\master.scx
thisform.Release
CLEAR events

Thanks for your patiences and help
