I am converting an application currently running in VFP6 that was orginally a 2.6 application. Genscrnx was used to create .spr files for some of the screens still in use.

Initially those screens are displayed correctly. But when you use a mouse and move the pointer over them, everything dissappears. The buttons and graphics only reappear when the mouse is directly over them and dissappear when the mouse is moved off.

What do I need to do to fix this problem?

Put this is your main startup program:

Code:
_Screen.Themes = .F.

Gee whiz! I ran into this problem a couple days ago.
I had been running FP 2.x screens 'converted' to run with VFP 7 and they worked okay.
We upgraded to VFP 9 and when I ran them, I had the same issue. Rather than look for the answer, I instead took the time to redo them in native VFP 9.

Oh well. It needed to be done.

You still get another star for pointing this out Marcia.

Hello.

You also have a property in your form called Theme. Always put it at .F. (in the load event for exemple : THISFORM.Theme = .F.)
