Hi Tracy.

I have a modal form that in one case I want to only display it behind some various popup input modal forms. When the user replies to the questions on the popup modal forms, then I want the image to dissappear. (Sortof like the older FPD26 way of using @...says to display information on the form but let programming continue without prompting for input on the form itself) Is there anyway to show the form without having it wait for an input so programming in the calling program can continue without creating a duplicate second form that is modeless? I do not want the user to be able to click on the form and activate it. It should just show in the background...

What about just displaying the image in _Screen when you want it displayed in the background like so:

IF NOT EMPTY( This.cWallpaperName ) 
  _Screen.Visible = .T.
  _Screen.AddObject( "WallPaper", "Image" )
  _Screen.WallPaper.Stretch = 2
  _Screen.WallPaper.Width = SYSMETRIC(1)
  _Screen.WallPaper.Height = SYSMETRIC(2)
  _Screen.WallPaper.Picture = FULLPATH( CURDIR() ) + "GRAPHICS\" + This.cWallPaperName
  _Screen.WallPaper.Visible = .T.
