>>Yes, I used to call it 'start.prg'. You can call app object anytime you need. For example, you have many messageboxes and you want to have common and portatble title for them. So, you use oApp.msgtitle property defined once in start.prg and use it as third parameter in all =messagebox() functions.

*** start.prg
oApp=createobject('app')

Define class app as custom
.msgtitle="System Error"
enddefine

*** some snippet
=messagebox("Cannot Proceed",1+16,oApp.msgtitle)
