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.



Steps to Reproduce Behavior

 * 1) Choose Coverage Profiler from the Tools menu.
 * 2) Press the ALT+TAB keys. The Coverage Profiler icon is present in the task list, but the Visual FoxPro icon is no longer present.
