>>>That's what I had to do. But then you can't minimize the Property window. And the only way to hide/show it is by clicking on the toolbar, which is cumbersome. It is annoying, I agree.

>I know but after 5 years of using VFP 6 and having used to minimize the Property window, it is PITA to change the habit. I wonder why VFPT make this change. In essence they made the Property window setting unDockable useless.

I never minimize the Properties sheet so I've no idea what bothers you. :)
The best way to handle it is to get the second monitor, make the Properties sheet dockable and move to the second monitor.
