Sounds like Goverment work to me. Who is the client that wants the look of DOS in a Visual FP App?

>The client wants all their applications re-written (Y2K solution)in Visual 5.0 but...they have to look the same as the old apps. In order to accomplish the 'look and feel' of DOS I have to hide the main FoxPro Window so that the titlebar does not show. I can do this pretty easily with:

>application.visible = .F. in the init and
>application.visible = .T. in the destroy if....I am using a screen

>This is not the case, however.

>I could also hide any and all traces of the window borders within the
