I run into the same thing - I used two monitors - and I got tired of checking the caption to make sure I was using the correct command window. I change the _screen.caption to the app that is running off that instance of VFP. I typically run 3 apps simultaneously but only one is inscreen. The other two I dock the command window (it has document view, properties, and view all docked as well) so only the app where everything is inscreen has the floating docked windows. I would prefer to change the window title as well but haven't taken the time to figure it out yet.
