I usually find that to have a splash screen show properly, I need to do it noshow and in the init turn off the titlebar, and then show the form. For some reason that is what appears to work for me.

>Hi - I came across you thread about the titlebar appearing in a as top level form even though it does not show in design... Did you find a solution? If you did could you let know about it - I am having exactly the same problem!!!!
