Jan, I haven't seen that exactly, but I do have probs with shortcuts to
mapped drives and shortcuts to files on mapped drives - they all
disappear every few weeks, and not necessarily at boot up.
So maybe it is an issue with mapped drives: if your shortcut loses the
mapping, it looks for the next drive - a local one.
Try creating a desktop shortcut to a mapped drive and see if there's any
correlation between that disappearing and your shortcut losing its
mapped drive.
Do any of your other machines run Win7?
Any problems with them?

Group,
Looking for ideas.
I have one computer on my network that occasionally the shortcut loses
it's propetie and assigns it something random.
So if I had it set to "run in" my mapped drive, it will switch to
something on the local computer.
Anyone seen anything like this happen before? Suggestions?
This machine is running Windows 7.

Jan,
Have a look at Asus Zenbook.
Powerful 5.6 performance-index for Windows
Weight: 1800 grams
Screen: 1600 * 900
As big as a A4 paper.
Disadvantages: you need an adapter if you like to use a wide
screen and an adapter for the cabled network.

Rats!
Over the weekend my vehicle was broken into and they went through
the backseat to the trunk.
Of course my laptop was in there, a 2012 Dell 3750 with Windows 7
on it (not to mention a bunch of non-uploaded work in RBASE). This
guy really scored in the electronics area on me (iPad 2, iPod
classic, GPS, cell phone, etc.).
I can't fully wait for my laptop to show up again but need to
begin shopping again.
I usually like to kill 2 birds with one stone.
My company sends techs into the field and we usually use a PC at
the sh op and a portable for field work but I'm thinking of
combing now with the release of Windows 8 tablets. Which would
lead me to pick up one to make sure we can deploy compiled 9.5
properly.
Thoughts?
Jan

same form
I'm surprised no one piped up to tell me "CLOSEWINDOW alias"
was already available.
It makes an alternate solution far more practical.
I've decided that best way to handle this is to on have one
child form open at a time.
The master form will orchestrate this.
Will a little ingenuity, saving info on one form and opening
another and repopulating it will work out just fine.
Thanks to all who responded.
As usual, the KISS principle applies.

Actually, it looks like what I am looking for is a set of
commands like this:
SETFOCUS alias (already available)
SHOW alias (makes it visible)
HIDE alias (makes it invisible)
CLOSE alias (does a closewindow on it)

Did you know that you can create any form object dynamically,
including
the Component ID, using the CREATEOBJECT command?
