Thanks for the informaton Cetin!
I'm assuming I should use the built-in _Screen object (using an instance object) to render and control the multiple forms that could be displayed at one time?
I've seen some of your other threads about the _Screen object. Do you see any "gotchas" in managing an entire application through this object?
Thanks again!

(titlebar=0, controbox=.f. etc). A resize event code might act upon them for accomodation to new size.
