Cursor is erratic

This behavior started a few days ago.

When a control (textbox, editbox etc) is selected the cursor keeps
disappearing. If the app is restarted it is visible, after some time it
disappears. When the mouse button is held down its visible until the button
is released. This had happened to me a long time ago and I can't remember
how I fixed it, anybody knows why this is happening?

Sounds like you are running a program you made up with an older
version of foxpro and now you are running into the themes problem with
a newer version.

Put this in your main program to shut of the themes.

* SHUT OFF THEMES IN WINDOWS XP
_screen.Themes =.F.
SYS(2700,0)

Tony; You Da Man.
Strange though, I had _screen.Themes = .F. in the beginning of the app
without the SYS(), but with the SYS() it took care of the problem. Did not
realize you had to have both...
Thanks

Sometimes you do and sometimes you don't. Strange as it seems so I put
both.
