>Still a bit confused about what you are asking. My main form - the one that calls the print preview form - definitely has its ShowWindow property set to '2'- As Top-Level Form. Also, there is no code that sets properties of the print preview form (such as the oPreviewForm.WindowState=2 you mentioned in a preview post); all its properties were set in the Class Designer....

Maybe this is the point we are hung up on? My fudge code is simply to get the desired look I want AUTOMATICALLY without the *user* having maximize the preview window and then restore the main window size afterwards....

I don't think you're going to be able to get to that point. What's being done is that the preview window will appear inside the specified form as a separate window. Because top-level forms have title bars, there's no way around having the double title bars appear, at least until the user maximizes the preview window. At that point, only a single title bar will appear. The only soltion that I can think of would be to know exactly what the preview form's title bar would be. Then, by adding NOWAIT to REPORT FORM... command, use Foxtools to get the whandle of the window. Then, using this value, call _WZoom() in Foxtools. Personally, I don't like using NOWAIT, however.
