We have a VFP 6 application that calls other programs - user clicks on a button and the program launches: IE, Word, etc. One of these programs switches video modes because it plays tutorial videos and the like. The problem is that, when control returns to our VFP program, the VFP form shifts on the display. That can move buttons off the screen, making it impossible for the user to move on!

We have set our forms as NOT movable because we don't want the man-on-the-street messing around with the position or sizing of the screens, so we can't move them back into place when the shift occurs and, of course, we'd like to have them in the proper position to begin with.

Also, the forms are modal and the title bar is off.

Any thoughts?
