Tha easiest way to start may be to just create a main top-level (TL) with no controls (a "shell"), which acts like the vfp main screen. Put all other forms as "In top-level." Put the activex statusbar in a bottom-docked vfp toolbar (or it will not work correctly) in the main TL, and add your menu & toolbars also. Not really a lot to it...

If you have one form that is really very primary, use that instead of the "shell" TL I suggest above.

Anything more specific?
