Here is the situation: I have 2 forms Form A and Form B. On form A I have a pushbutton which does a run_product to form B. Form B is a data entry form. If the user makes any changes then does a File-Exit from the menu bar without previously commiting the changes an alert box is supposed to pop up asking them if they want to commit the changes. BUT it doesn't. Nothing happens at all.

The File - Exit does a do_key('exit_form'); which should force the box to pop up.

I changed the Run_Product in form A to a Call_Form and my alert box *does* pop up. What does this mean? The users want the Run_Product so they can get back to Form A leaving Form B open.

I am using Forms 4.0.12 on Windows 3.1. User pc's are 486's with 8M Ram. I have a 486 with 16M ram and don't get the problem always as the users do but do get it sometimes. If it is a function of the amount of Ram then why? Does it take much to pop up an alert box. Most users don't have anything else open on their windows when they use this system.

TIA for any help or workarounds. Received on Wed Feb 15 1995 - 18:14:09 CET
