>>>But then, Dmitry, don't you need to center the VFP screen, first? If you center a child form inside the main VFP window, it centers against the VFP _Screen window, not against your device screen. Unless, of course, your VFP main form is running maximized.

Sorry for a very newbie question. Does you code:

Sorry for a very newbie question. Does you code:
BINDEVENT(_Screen, "DisplayOrientation", This, "ReCenter")mean that every time the value of the VFP main window (_screen) DisplayOrientation changes, call ReCenter method?
