Peter,

I'll watch this thread. This is something I've tried to get around back in the 3.0 days. I can't stand the menu showing. I've even created my own menu with just a single quit on it. The stupid fox menu shows, then my menu and finally my form. Can't help you here.

Robert



>I appreciate enormously the patience of all who have responded to my messages thus far, but I am afraid my explanation of the problem has been inadequate. So here’s my problem completely in a tiny application I’ve made just for testing it. It includes a MAIN.PRG file like this:
>
>DO FORM MYFORM
>READ EVENTS
>DO CLEANUP
>
>PROCEDURE CLEANUP
>CLEAR EVENTS
>CLOSE ALL
>
>a form, MYFORM with just one command button with THISFORM.RELEASE in the click event, and a ShowWindow value of 2, AS-TOP-LEVEL-FORM.
>
>and no table!
>
>I’ve included a config.fpw file in the project that says nothing but SCREEN=OFF
>
>I build an exe, run it, and before the form appears I get a white window with Visual FoxPro on the title bar and a few menu buttons for one or two seconds.
>
>I’ve tried running c:\myfolder\myprog.exe -T
>
>I’ve tried _screen.left = -5000 in the main file
>
>I’ve tried screen=off in a config.fpw

>Nothing works.

>Must I use the screen with its menu? And if so how do I control the look of the screen?
