Bill I set the the Left and Top properties in the Load event and the Width and Height in the Init Arnon >I am programmatically setting the position and, if applicable, the size of my forms when they are run. However, when the form(s) shows, there is a flash as the form is Moved from where the form originally was to its new position/size. The settings are made in most forms in the form Init, in some forms, the form Show. The flash appears in either case. I have tried various combinations of settings for LockScreen, Visible, etc. but the form always flashes. I know I'm missing something here but I can't put my finger on it. > >Thanks, >Bill
