When I first instantiate it, the VFP IDE loses focus and I can see a windows icon when I do ALT+TAB that says "Microsoft Visual Foxpro" (in addition to my running VFP) but then when I go back to the IDE, that icon goes away. It's still showing up as a process running in Task Manager but I can't see anything even by firing the Show, Draw and a lot of other methods I've tried.

I just double-checked my status bar, and I've got:

AlwaysOnTop = .T.
AutoCenter = .T.
BorderStyle = 2
ControlBox = .F.
ShowInTaskBar = .F.
ShowWindow = 2
TitleBar = 0
