>>How do have a form receive the focus when running it as a top-level form? In my stub .prg I'm setting _screen.visible to .f., running the form and doing a READ EVENTS. But the form is not the active form on the desktop when it appears. How do I make this happen?

Also, depending on what you're doing, issuing a Show will activate it, which is a form's version of setfocus...
