>None of those. I used the FFC Splash as a baseclass, and made the titleBar property off (someone forget that one at MS?). Still, if I make it a top-level form, a title bar appears. I still can not MOVE the form. Also, rather than push my form down, the blue bar at the top (which I assume to be a title bar) pushes the stuff IN my form down, but doesn't expand my form.

If I recall correctly, top level forms must has a title bar. If you want to not show anything but the splash screen, re-set it to either in screen, or in top-level form. Then set the .DeskTop property to .T. Prior to displaying the screen use SYSMETRIC() and the form's height and width to calculate the .Top and .Left properties. Then show the form. When you're ready to display either the screen or top level form, do the appropriate adjustments. Be aware that there's a timer loop for 3 seconds that'll delay your application initializing.
