That is, if _SCREEN is resized by the user, the image repositions itself to the center of the _SCREEN. As far as I know this cannot be done using the _SCREEN RESIZE event as _SCREEN has no RESIZE event. So, I create a form that I place my image on plus a timer which fires every .5 seconds and centers the form with the image. If the user resizes the screen, the timer fires ( after a very short delay ) and recenters the form and thus my image. Sorry if I was unclear or misunderstood the question.

You did not misunderstood the question. There is only properties or methods associated to _SCREEN, so I guess I'll have to use a timer.

Thank for your help.
