I upgraded from 2.x to vfp 9 and my application is working perfectly (Thanks
to your help) However, when I run the exe and click on Exit from a screen -
it flashes white and then closes. How can I eliminate the white screen?

Thisform.visible=.f.
_screen.visible=.f.

If I go into myform.scx - modify - command3 - (Exit) - click Visible change
to .f.
That makes the button invisible.
The problem is after I click the Exit key and I go to the Main Menu that
there is a white screen flash.

The white is not when I exit the whole program - If I am at a dialog box and
exit the dialog box - The Exit works but there is a moment of white screen
where the dialog box was. Could there be something in the properties?

Hi Carol!

I don't think that it is any Property . IMHO it your machine especially your
graphic card which seems not to be able to refresh the screen as fast as
necessary. Additionally your computer may busy with other things

What are the specs of your machine? It sounds like (as has been said by
others) that your video redraw is a bit slow. I know that with some
video cards this kind of behavior is normal. And on some slower
computers it can take some time to happen.

There was a bug in VFP when it comes to running old code on a background
picture. Try doing:

ACTIVATE SCREEN
? ""

before you do anything else after the background is set.
