Mike, As Woody says ... leave well alone.
I wrote a system once where I added a timer to _VFP and it ran like a total dog. I guess the timer events were screwing up the VFP event loop. Once I attached it to _Screen the problems all went away. Never ever used _VFP as a Holding object ever since.

Think of _VFP as "the engine" and _SCREEN as the "visual representation". Don't fiddle with the engine!

(I checked the ProFox archive but searching for _VFP _SCREEN (with underscore, with underscored escaped, and without underscore) did not turn up any matches or at least the ones applicable). I know we've discussed this somewhere in the past but could not find the reference.)
I was adding another "global" application attribute for a signal flag for later code to reference, and I realized I've always used the _SCREEN object. Would seem more logical to reference the _VFP object. Your thoughts on this design decision?
tia, --Michael
