And, my last question was, have you tried running the program without the splash screen. I.E. comment it out.

Have you compiled in messagebox() calls in the app to see where it get's to?

When you say it does nothing (I know this is frustrating), is it still a process (when you press ctl-alt-del, do you see your application there)?

>>What do you mean "nothing else happens." Does the computer lock up? Do you get a GPF? Does the splash screen show and then the application closes? If you run it from the command window and it's fine, how is the environment different? Have you tried running the app without the splash screen?

>>> The problem is that when I issue "do myexe.exe" in the command window, it works perfectly. WHen I click on teh .exe from the Explorer window, it runs my Splash screen and then nothing else happens. Can't seem to find what the problem is. Any more ideas?
