I found it in the help file and thanks to you and others, I will put
code for _SCREEN in my oApp object at startup. I am sounding more OOP these days...

also.. check this out from a "use to be" clipper programmer...

How I did it...

RE: Visual FoxPro 5.0

I first started out by trying to make anything work...

After I got the "hang of things"...

I started writing CLASSES and then SUBCLASSING... then

I started writing functions, now called METHODS, and using PROPERTIES (was called memory variables)...

Now, I am writing my methods for my objects, smaller and more generic...

Over the hump...

Rob

thanks Craig...
