SYMPTOMS
At design time, you may switch between objects in the Form Designer by using the Object list located at the top of the Properties window. However, selecting a different form in a formset from this list does not make the selected form the topmost window in the Form Designer.



WORKAROUND

 * Switch between Forms by using the Form list located in the lower-left corner of the Form Designer. -or-
 * If a portion of the form is visible in the Form Designer, click the exposed portion to bring it to the front. -or-


 * If you have only one formset open, press CTRL+F6 to cycle through the forms in the Form Designer.



STATUS
Microsoft is researching this behavior and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.



Steps to Reproduce Behavior

 * 1) Open or switch to Microsoft Visual FoxPro and create a formset that consists of two or more forms.
 * 2) Right-click the Form, and open the Properties window.
 * 3) Using the Object list located in the Properties window, attempt to change the focus from one form to another. Note that regardless of the form selected, the topmost form in the Form Designer does not change.
