For your form to be center "set auto center to true" form property sheet

>b) the background window that automatically appears to NOT have a menubar with FILE / EDIT / WINDOW / HELP
In the init method say "set skip of menu _sysmenu .t." this will disabel the menu pad and in the unload method of the form say "set skip of menu _sysmenu .f." this will enabled the memnu pad.

Befor you call your form menu in your startup prg say "_screen.caption = '' and this will remove Visual Foxpro. Also in your startup prg say "_screen.backcolor = rgb(0,0,0)" and this will turn your background screen black.
