James,

This is very intriguing. The issue as I see it is running the form outside of the native MM application object. Setx will just set up the project files, right? If I run doform('newform'), it's going to be looking for application object items as it instantiates, isn't it?

I figured I could just call the form (it's only one form at this point) from my old app, and everything would be OK. Problem is, I can only get the form to run through "Do Main". This brings up the MM security, the menus, the toolbars, etc. How can I just access the form through my old app?
