>>I used thisform.point to return pixel at 50,50 on a form that is 100,100. If I place a window from a different program over the vfp form covering the pixel at 50,50.... thisform.point returns -1 as if the pixel at 50,50 is no longer there. Is there any way to change this behavior?

>Are you trying to get pixel colors? You can use this code to get color from anywhere on screen:

Yes I want the pixel color of the vfp form. Not the whole screen. It seems that thisform.point only works if the form is not under a different window?
