Here's another thought....

Set the BorderStyle to 3 and set the MinHeight/MinWidth and MaxHeight/MaxWidth to Thisform.height/Thisform.width in the INIT of the form.

>>In VFP 3.0, BorderStyle 3 creates a nice colored border around a form. However, a user can then resize the form, even if it makes no sense to do so!

>>Using BorderStyle 1 or 2 fixes the form size, but wipes out the color.

>>Is there any way to have a colored border which users cannot resize?
