>I've found that by setting a form to autocenter at design time, that the first time I run the form it's in the center. Because I leave my forms movable, if I move it and close the form Foxpro remembers where the form was on the screen the last time it was run and opens it in it's last position. Regardless of the autocenter setting. I've never tried setting autocenter in the init at runtime.

Sounds like you're not really closing the forms, only hiding them and then making them visible again later. Or maybe you have some code that stores where it was. There's no native VFP way of keeping the location automatically, you have to do it yourself.
