It is what I would term as a single-form application. There is only ever one window, with a toolbar and a menu, but the contents of that window can change based on the tab that you select on the left hand side. I'm also concerned that you've got two FoxPro windows. IMHO, it would make better sense to resize/move/reborder the main window so that it was the outside border for your application. I've done this in VFP3 quite successfully. IMHO, .desktop=.t. windows should only be used for single purpose windows, not for an entire application. /Paul
