VFP does hold compiled prg files open. Which is why you can get problems in

debug, which should be renamed buggy as it causes more fall over's than

anything, being able to display the code. But clear all does not deal with

them. I must admit I have never had a problem like yours, but then I issue a

clear all in the programs anyway. Maybe the library is already open and

cannot open again? Though I don't think so. Try "Set library to" next time,

instead of clear all, to see if that clears your problem.

I learnt something today, I didn't know about clear error.

Why is it when you go to rebuild your EXE, you get an error saying "File is

not open" ?? Doing a CLEAR ALL takes care of the issue, but I'm curious to

the reason why. I'm guessing it's one of the SET LIBRARY TOs

???
