So what happens is: the compiler creates public variables in the form which have the name of the controls in the form (I guess), so that the programmer can write FMain.myMenu to access their menu control. But Utility is actually a boolean property of the Form class already from which FMain inherits, so the not-so-strange "incorrectly overridden" error is raised. Our friend did two things wrong here: normally, you shouldn't tick the "form controls are public" checkbox. Indeed the program seems to not need it at all. It's the same as having everything be a global variable -- it nullifies the principle of encapsulation. The second thing is to violate the Gambas naming conventions :-) Calling a thing "Utility" asks for trouble, "mnuUtility" would be fine.
