I have to say that this bug is also to be found in Visual FoxPro 6.0 SP5 
running under native Win2K SP3.  It only occurs if you use an OCX control on a 
form.  I believe that it is related to an OCX control firing internal events.

When considering GPF faults with Visual FoxPro it is better to make sure that 
they do not occur on the native platform.  FoxPro is single threaded (or stolen 
zero threaded during big SQL extracts!) so how it responds to underlying 
windows messages is very precarious.

To date I have about 20 different variations of various unacknoledge Visual 
FoxPro GPFs.  I have to work around then all during my Visual FoxPro 
development.  I did report them via MS WWW site but noticed months later that 
they had no outstanding bugs with this horrid product so I stopped reporting 
them!

I am now a Sun Java Certified programmer and hope never to have to deal with 
this FoxPro product again.
