There was a 'bug' in VFP pertaining to a 'grids' recordsource. I don't know

if it's been fixed.

If you have a grid on the form when you call a REPORT FORM, and if the grid

currently has focus, the report will maybe print the 1st page correctly,

but then error out because the workarea gets reset to the grids recordsource.

The above may not be entirely accurate. But if you've got a grid that has

focus when you call the report, try setting focus to a button on the form

before the REPORT FORM call.
