That *is* pretty weird <g>.

Some questions:

1) What is the exact line you use to do the REPORT FORM .. PREVIEW (I'm assuming that the preview is what you mean when you say "user closes report and then Designer pops up" -- please tell me if you mean something else) ?

2) Is this line of code always pretty much the same, or is it (for example) sometimes NOPAGEEJECT and sometimes not? If you use PREVIEW NOWAIT, do they ever call the same report preview twice in succession ? Or do you do this programmatically (possibly with a different scope)?

3) What type of environment invokes the REPORT FORM line(s)? Button? Modal form or modeless? Menu?

4) What is the NAME of the report(s) in question (filename(s), typical paths in relation to your EXE)? Are the reports built into the EXE or external?

5) If built in, do you ever find copies of the files on your user's disks after this experience?

6) If the line in #1 includes a WINDOW and/or IN WINDOW clause, how are you defining the WINDOW(s) (or form(s)) that you use for this purpose?

7) Do any other forms in your application have the same title bar/caption?

8 Is this a top form application or do you use _SCREEN as a container?

9) Do you use MODI/CREATE REPORT *anywhere* in your application?

That's about all the possible things that I can think of, right now, that *could* be involved <g>.
