If you look back in the message archive you'll see this is a FAQ. If you
are using the IDE and have the cursor at the end of the form it will be
matching the two parentheses. Executing this form executes the from from
the first to the last parenthesis inclusive. ie. It has not got the tick
selected. 

To execute the entire form select with the mouse the tick as well as the
form and it will work fine.
