>So, here is my thought for the day, maybe, I was wrong in not using the _screen. maybe, my apps would be cleaner, and more pleasing to the eye. more flat if I ONLY used one _screen, and no forms at all. that way I could put controls directly on the _screen element, remove them, keep one menu on top, and maybe a side bar menu on the left of the application, but start to write text boxes and labels, command buttons etc, directly to the _screen.

I've done something similar. However, I didn't get rid of "Forms" per se. I removed their Title Bars and Borders, and maximize them so that they in effect "merge" with _SCREEN. It still looks as if everything is happening inside a single main Window.

"Forms" are still a good way to partition and manage an App; especially for rapid switching between "Views".
