Cetin,

That did it. I'm completely form-contained now...

Many thanks,

Irv.

>>I am interested in this method of startup and release of a Form. I created a Form as ShowWindow=As-Top-Level,Desktop=.T. and coded the Init() as you specified. Then I issue a Clear Events and a Form.Release() behind a command button. I also bundled a Config.fpw with Screen=Off to avoid the initial incoming flicker.

>>>With just one form you don't need the main.prg either - as well as set sysmenu off,_screen.caption... and neither "quit" after clear events:) You can directly code in form.init ie:
>>>

>>>this.show
>>>read events

>>>Instead of _screen.visible = .f. in code put it in config.fpw as Cindy pointed out.
