>Did so, still same result. The only line in the Config.fpw is SCREEN=OFF. I put it in the directory with the EXE, in the project and tried the command line switch. Still, same result??????

Could you be building another config into the EXE fromt eh project manager? Also, check your code for _screen.visible = .t., this would make it visible again, after you started hidden.

Put something like:

TITLE = My App

In the config as well and tell if that affects the screens caption at startup. If not, post what you can of teh Main.prg.
