Was this a newly created form or was it one converted from a SQLForms 3.0 form to the Oracle Forms 4.0, 4.5,5.0 or 6.0? I had that behavior when I converted an old Form and then started adding new features to it. I am curious. Nope, I never reported it to Oracle. I just would convert a Form to easily steal code in text from, but I rebuilt every Form from scratch because of the weird behaiviors....and there were lots more strange things! rq
