I have this form frm_main.scx which is working before but now
when I try to modify it, it gives me an error below.


Error loading file-record number 42.label
<or one of its member>. fontcharset: expression evaluated to an illegal value.

I have some back up of this files which I modified but it gives me the same error.


What should I do?
Plz Help..tnx
 
You said you already have backups, but it's safer to make one more.
I propose to you to open the form as a table (with USE frm_main.scx), go to the record 42 and inspect the memo field Properties (with a Browse command). If you see ". fontcharset = " either add a valid value (like 0 or 1), either remove the line.
Close the table (with USE) and try to open the form normally (as a form).

Yes, you may have stored a fontcharset not available anymore.

Doing as Vilhelm-Ion suggests you can remove that impossible fontcharset.

Just be prepared your form may now display a wrong label caption for that label.

Bye, Olaf.
