It does seem to help if there is a related, maximized VFP form on the

desktop.

No idea why or how this happens but cycling between the forms using CTRL/F1 until the correct form is "on top" usually sorts it out

>> Hi all

>>

>> We occasionally find that after a form closes the main VFP/application close button is disabled. Clicking anywhere outside the application (e.g. on the windows desktop or another open application) and then clicking on the VFP/application desktop renders the close button useable again. Does anybody have any suggestions as to what might be causing this behaviour? Has anybody else come across this behaviour?

>> Thanks
