Steps to Reproduce Behavior
---------------------------

1. Create a program named "Test" and add the following code to it:

  ACTIVATE WINDOW "document view"
  CLOSE DATABASES ALL 
  OPEN DATABASE HOME()+'samples\data\testdata'
  SET RESOURCE OFF
  DELETE FILE testxx.fr?
  MODIFY REPORT testxx NOWAIT 
  ACTIVATE WINDOW "report designer - testxx.frx"
  * Open DE, bring up context menu,
  * add first table in DBC, and then close the Add dialog.
  KEYBOARD '{alt+v}e{shift+f10}a{alt+a}{alt+c}c'
  DOEVENTS 
  ACTIVATE WINDOW properties
  * Select DE in Property window object dropdown.
  KEYBOARD '{ctrl+pgup}'
  ACTIVATE WINDOW "report designer - testxx.frx"
  * Save and close the Report Designer.
  KEYBOARD '{ctrl+w}'
  DOEVENTS 
  ACTIVATE WINDOW properties
  RETURN 

2. Save the file and then run the program from the Command window.

  The error mentioned in the "Symptoms" section appears and Visual FoxPro
  closes.

To see the error with the Document View window closed, place the following code
in a program file and then run it. Note that you may need to run the code
multiple times to cause the error.

  RELEASE WINDOW "document view"
  CLOSE DATABASES ALL 
  OPEN DATABASE HOME()+'samples\data\testdata'
  SET RESOURCE OFF
  DELETE FILE testxx.fr?
  MODIFY REPORT testxx NOWAIT 
  ACTIVATE WINDOW "report designer - testxx.frx"
