 Last reviewed: February 4, 1996
Article ID: Q143400
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, versions 3.0 and 3.0b

SYMPTOMS

When a form is run, either the form or controls on the form may exhibit unexpected or inexplicable behavior.

CAUSE

Some property settings in which the default value has been manually entered may cause erratic behavior in certain forms. The exact properties or combination of properties has not yet been determined.

RESOLUTION

To determine if this is the cause of unexplainable behavior, look for any properties having the word "Default" within parenthesis which also appears in bold. To correct this condition, right-click the bolded default property to bring up the property menu. Then choose Reset to Default.
