>>>Was that reported in NT, maybe? - I saw it somewhere...I can only test Win95 just now, and my WAIT WINDOW works fine, also...that little idea about the custom WAIT WINDOW is kind of neat though, if you hide the vfp wait window but put a TIME on it, pass a top-level method a text parameter, time, etc. It gives a wait type of window with a lot more control - position, color, etc...

>>If your .ShowWindow is set to 2 (As Top-Level Form) and .Desktop is set to .T., guess what? (You guys better not need 3 guesses either< g >). No WAIT WINDOW. Since setting the .Desktop property is unnecessary when .ShowWindow is set to 2, reset it to .F. (the default). Viola, WAIT WINDOW works again. Or least it did in my case.

Nothing against those who got them, but it really blows my mind that you (Ed) don't have the blue envelope yet. Someone at the MVP committee(?) is asleep...
