Hi Ken,

An interesting thought! I've used it without parentheses for years and it's never bitten me on the bum - perhaps this is the first time :-) I'll start using the brackets.

...

ThisForm.pgfIncExp.ActivePage = This.Value ThisForm.Refresh

Probably already thought of but the proper syntax of the command is:

ThisForm.Refresh()

(ie, with parentheses)

Such code would run semi-reliably without the parens in VFP 6 but less so

in

later versions. I have had a few instances in which bad code generates

errors

under some circumstances but not others, in seemingly random fashion, owing most likely to the behavior of the compiler.
