Tracy,

Is it possible that the Windows Taskbar (the "autohide", "always on top", and the height of the bar) is the difference between the systems?

Personally, I'm not a fan of storing application settings in the registry. And, I think Microsoft is not either, since it is going away from that concept in .NET.

You can save a flag into an .ini file in the application directory. File #9766 works great in reading/writing .ini files.

>Hi all, I have the following code in my main.prg which works in most instances. However, on some systems (doesn't matter the screen resolution or the OS) for some reason autocenter does not work and neither does setting the top of the form. The form and main screen will appear so high on the screen that the menu is not visible. I have not been able to isolate this problem and determine what is causing it. To fix it, we have been allowing the user to move the window down to where it is visible. However, the same monitor on a different system will show the window exactly where it should be. If there is not a resolution for what is causing this, then I would like to save the new location (.top=4 on some systems) to a registry key and restore it everytime that system starts the vfp app again. Any ideas anyone?
