>>>Has anybody else noticed that with a form whose Desktop property is true (not a top-level form), the caption in the Windows taskbar says "Microsoft Visual Foxpro" instead of the form's actual caption? I couldn't find this documented in MSKB. Is there a workaround?

I can tell you what I do for the situation, whether that will fit your design, I don't know. I park a TL off the screen, and show only the Desktop as an In-TL. The title for the TL is what shows on the Taskbar, of course. Only the TL shows on the taskbar. _screen is shut off.
