Gerard,

It should work if you include a config.fpw in the exe and put a SCREEN=OFF in the config file.

>I have a FPW app which calls a VFP app and just does on thing and then retuens back to the FPW app. The VFP app ia made up of just one screen and a few controls that require no user intervention at all. VFP app is called:
>RUN /N MYVFPAPP.EXE "MyParam1" "MyParam2"
>
>(I need to do it like this because my VFPAPP has a particular Activex control which ,definitely works from a screen, but may not work if instantiated separately)
>
>I am able to hide both the screen, and the controls on the secreen, but for the 2 seconds that the VFPAPP runs, it brings up the VFP main Foxpro Window momentarily.(i.e. A Visual Foxpro app window with File Edit Windows Help on it)
>I dont want the user seeing this screen at all.
>
>Is there a way of completely hiding the VFP window when the VFP app runs. so that the user has tha appearance that an external app is not being loaded ?
