Actually, Gonz, I picked up that little gem from Rick Strahl.
In playing around with it, with _SCREEN.Visible = .F. it goes bye-bye if you minimize it. I think, however, that defining a window, for the report writer might work, but it may only work in 6.0. If I recall correctly, in 5.0 you couldn't do previews with SDIs (invisible _SCREEN). That may apply here too, but I haven't checked yet.
