MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Problem

1. In the Command window, issue the following command on one line:

         CREATE TABLE gpf_tst (graphname C(30), graphid N(2,0), graphtitle ;
         C(80), xaxis C(12), flist M, olegraph G)
   

2. Create a query with TUTORIAL\MOREREG.DBF, using the DIRECTOR, QUOTA, and TODATE fields.

3. Execute the query and send the output to a graph.

4. Move ahead in the GraphWizard and save the graph as GPF_TST.DBF. Choose Append, then choose OK to exit.

5. With the RQBE window still open, use the View window to open and BROWSE the GPF_TST database.

6. Double-click the OLEGRAPH field to open the graph.

7. With the graph still visible, minimize FoxPro.

8. Select the FoxPro icon. In the Control Menu box, choose Close.

9. When you are prompted to save the query, choose No.

   The following error message will be displayed:
