Sergey,

It's worse than that! If I learned to spell, it would be a lot easier. I had WinApi32 in the DECLARE statement rather than Win32API. It works a lot better when it can find the DLL<g>.

DECLARE Sleep IN WIN32API long

I took a look at the Transparent Form example in the solutions and added the DODEFALT() and DECLARE code to the form.init and lnValue ties to a TIMER event (since I don't have a slider on the splash screen). When I try to run the form I get an error of "Cannot load 32-bit DLL Winapi32." I probably need to add an ActiveX or FFD control to the form but I can't determine from the sample which one.
