>>>The application is written with VFP 9 SP2 on Windows XP and everything works fine. The same application run on Vista has a problem with the forms.....

>>>The form (A) has a caption, and all looks normal. Another form (B) is called and sits on top of form (A). Form (B) looks normal, and then form (B) is closed by the user. Form (A) now looks terrible. The caption of form (A) is gone, and in its place is the parts of form (B) that is visible.

>>>This does not make sense because form (B) is closed. I have read about the border style problem and have all the forms set to 0 - no borders. Any ideas?

I'm not sure. So far I have avoided Vista like the plague apart from a brief, unpleasant experiment. (And it then proved hard to get rid of). The specific symptom I saw with Themes left to its default value of .T. was controls would be invisible until the mouse passed over them.
