Hi Norman,

What I don't understand is how the form can open/close 3 times!
If an error was causing the form to close just after it was opened I realy can't thing of a away that the error would cause the form to reopen and close again 2 times.

maybe you are looking in the wrong place ?

Something in your code may causing this ( a loop, a condition etc ?)

The "shared memory" error it is definately the case of having 2 or more instances of dbase opened. This I come across quite a few times mainly if you are using dbase 11 (or 12) with older version.

Regards

This may be associated with automatic Windows 10 updates, but I think it may be caused by the Shared Memory Conflict of a new .exe version of the Form that I am trying to complete.
