I have a pretty basic app using the FoxPro desktop. The code is like this:

--------
Modify window screen icon, title, and wallpaper.

Declare some public variables

Do a menu program

Read events

Quit

various functions...
--------

Menu selections bring up forms, open files, etc. One menu selection, "Exit", issues a Clear Events.

This works fine running under VFP 5.0a, but the runtime version won't show the desktop. The program is running (Win95) and I see it listed as a task after ctrl-alt-del. Ending the task is the only way I can stop it. I put Wait Windows before and after the Read Events. The first one comes up and the second one doesn't -- verifying that the program is running quite happily while remaining invisible. Do I need special glasses for distributed apps?
