Okay, okay...

I found my problem. The "blip" was being caused by the presence of ZOOM SCREEN MAX, referring to a screen that wasn't even there. Without that line of code, everything looks good.

Thanks for all your help!


>I set the form's ShowWindow property to "2" (Top Level Form) with SCREEN=OFF in the FPW file. Apparently, this does not work for a formset, because it never displays, and the EXE must be shut down with the Close Program (Ctrl+Alt+Del) tool.

If I run the EXE from Explorer, there is a momentary "blip", followed by the form (no screen!) popping up a few moments later. The form also does not have focus, but is *still* the top level form. I suppose this is the result of having no initial background screen(?).
