Is there something missing here?
This code doesn't appear to reference an actual image file.
I am no longer setting _SCREEN.PICTURE, but the following code is STILL leaving the image plastered in the upper left corner

._screen.addobject("MyImage", "Image")
WITH _SCREEN.myimage
.picture = "BMPS\Lw2000.Bmp"
.left = int( (_screen.Width - .width ) / 2 )
.top = int( (_screen.Height - .height ) / 2 )
.visible = .t.
ENDWITH

What am I doing wrong?
