Hello Silvio:

Try to add the following codes in the Main program or
in the Init Method of the Main form:

_screen.minimized =.T.

This will hide the main VFP screen. However, you may
have to add cleanup codes to properly exit the program.

In the Unload method of the form you must include:
QUIT

This will close the VFP environment. You can double-check
if the program is still running by doing the following:

Win NT - Check the Task Manager if your .EXE program is
still running in the Applications.
Win 95 - Click CTRL-ALT-DEL to see what are the programs
active. Be careful though or you may reboot your system.
