>I'm not sure how you want to do the cut and paste so I'll wait for you to give a little more detail on that, but if you take a look under files section you will find a free way class (VCX) that will allow you to do the system tray thing. For the toplevle form take a look at show window prop. You may want to leave desktop alone because I saw where George Tasker has found in VFP6 that you loose the wait window if you have the desktop set to true (i think) and show window as top-level.

I want the regular Windows cut and paste. I've seen in other posts that having it on the menu is what enables it, but I don't have a menu.
I'm using 5, and I don't need wait window, so I'm fine there.
I'll check out the rest.
Thanks,
Michelle
