>>>>>>I have a pair of dockable forms. Using the mouse, I am able to dock both forms on the same side of the screen, one on top of the other. Is there a way to programatically dock both forms in the same position. All I can find is the Dock method, calling the dock method of each form with 1 causes the forms to dock NEXT to each other NOT stacked. What I am attempting to do is to restore how the user has configured the forms when they are relaunched between sessions. Any ideas?

>>I thought the DOCK command is not supported during runtime. I will give it a try. I did notice that if I simply undock one form, then double click the title bar of the form it is restored to the correct position. So... that gives me hope that it is possible, if Foxpro can do it internally then I must be able to do it programatically, I just don't know how yet.

Sorry, wasn't paying enough attention to the question. Use the Dock method, and use the optional second parameter.

Assuming o1 and o2 are object refs to your forms:

o1.Dockable = 1
o2.Dockable = 1
o1.Dock(0,o2)
o1.Dock(1)
