VFP Main Screen VFP V6

[Pat]

I've compliled an application, primarily a 1 page form. I can't get rid of
VFPs main screen when I execute the program. I only want the form to display
on the screen... When I changed the visible property the whole application
disappears...

Set your form to be a top-level form, and set SCREEN=OFF in your config.fpw

When I set showwindow to 2- top-level on the form, the application appears
for a fraction of a second then dissapears..?

Do you have SET SCREEN = OFF in your Config.fpw?

Do you have a READ EVENTS in your code someplace?

Pat-

Keep in mind you'll need a CLEAR EVENTS, also.

Good catch, Fred. Thanks. I was still on the _SCREEN question, but I think
you pegged this latest problem.
