Peter,

Some quick thoughts.

Try to following:

1. Issue a clear command prior to calling the form.

2. All forms have a auto center property. Check under the Layout tab option under the properties dialog and look for the property autocenter. Set this property to .T. (True)

2. Try using the set sysmenu off and set sysmenu to command for disabling then main foxpro menu.

3. Finally, use the _screen object to set the foxpro title bar caption to whatever you would like. _screen.caption = "My title bar"
