>>AH! Thanks to all that replied! Now a related question...I've got a form that needs to maximize to the full size of the foxpro window when it opens, but currently it will show up in the original size for a moment and then resize, how do I make it so it will 'appear' in the ending state, instead of showing up and then resizing?

Well...I've already tried that...and it didn't work, for some reason, I'm not sure why, but I've gotten around it by putting a NODEFAULT in the show() and then calling the activate method from show() because this way show won't set visible to .t. but it will activate the form:) Thanks for the reply:)
