Thanks Garrett, thats exactly what had happened. I had just taken a quick look at the Application Wizard, and sure enough, it had dropped a config.fpw in my application directory, with the SCREEN=OFF command.

As I may have your attention, a quick question as to how much testing has been done with VFP 7.0 under XP with dual monitors. I have an issue with combo boxes (including those inside the PROPERTIES window) which do not display the drop down list on the second monitor.

I can work around by opening the affected windows only on the primary monitor, so its not a show stopper, but I did waste some time trying to figure it out...

Regards,

Andrew
On a CLEAR day you can see forever.
