All I did was to change the HalfHeight property to .T. Everything else was default. So, yes, ControlBox is .T.

I've never used this property, and I agree with Sergey and the Hacker's Guide. I can see no value in a half height title bar (unless, of course, you like getting phone calls from your clients asking "Why is the writing so small in the top of my form?"). <S>

>>It works for me. The change is not glaring, certainly; but on my system, the form's title bar does shrink to half height.
