SYMPTOMS

When a Visual FoxPro top-level form is in a modal state, the Visual FoxPro icon does not appear in the Windows task list when you use ALT+TAB to switch tasks.

CAUSE

The top-level form and Visual FoxPro are both sharing the same process. The modal behavior in the top-level form must be completed before the Visual FoxPro icon reappears in the task list.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
