Kevin,

One issue I've wrestled with in the past is the "Visual FoxPro" displaying in the title bar for a second or two as the app starts up. I've figured out a way to virtually eliminate this, which requires a modification to both the config file and main. Just wondering if you thought it might be worthwhile to add this to main:


_screen.Caption="MetaComet Systems LLC - The Creators of Royalty Tracker"
_screen.Icon='APP2.ICO'


This might be combined with a modification to appincl.h and appincl.dbf to pull the caption and the icon. You could probably just use the APPNAME_LOC constant for the app name.

That, combined with the following in top of the config.fpw:


screen=off
_screen.windowstate=1
_screen.caption="Royalty Tracker"


seems to "virtually" eliminate the problem. I say virtually, because it does still flash for a small fraction of a second, but unless your using remote access software, it's not visible to the end user.

Let me know what you think. I know you're really busy now, but if you deem it worthwhile, perhaps it could be included in a future release?

Thanks - happy holidays.

David
