Run Form Command

Use the Run Form command from the File menu to test a form that you are developing.

When testing a form, the following points apply.

• You can use the Run Form command to run any form, whether that form was generated by you or generated by using the Form Wizard.

• The form must be selected for edit in the Painter before you can run it.

• The form runs as though in runtime mode; that is, it can be used to enter data. However, note the following restrictions.

  • The results are unpredictable if there is any dependency on another form or another process being run first.

  • An MDI child form is run inside an MDI test frame.

For details, see "Testing Your Form", earlier in this chapter.
