>>My co-worker was helping with me with a VFP 6.0 application where the customer wanted the application to "run in the background." My co-worker made some changes (I think in properties) which was to make this happen. Today, when I run the application from the source code (i.e., debugger), I am able to see the main form. But when I compile and launch the executable, my app. doesn't show up, not even on the task list.

Check for SCREEN=OFF in any config.fpw file, or _Screen.Visible = .F. in your source code.

Thanks so much for your quick reply. There was a "_SCREEN.VISIBLE = .F." buried in the LOAD procedure of the main form, so as soon as I took that out, things worked fine.

Thank you!!
