Note to myself: The problem occured again (still wonder why...). This time I fixed it by:
- close VFP window
- chnage values of Reg keys Column and Row from -32000 to 0.

>I actually looked at the Desktop yesterday, and changed the Zoomed value from 1 to 0, but it didn't do anything...
>Desktop contains a number of keys, and each other VFP (5,9) has a Desktop key - you mean delete the whole Desktop key or just the keys in it? I guess I can do a backup...
>Thanks.

>>Hi Doru,

>>I had a similar problem a while back. Deleting HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualFoxPro\8.0\Desktop key from the registry fixed it.

>>>Starting yesterday VFP8.exe starts minimized, although the Run in the shortcut properties is set to 'Normal window'. After it starts, I can right click and maximize it, but when I click on 'Restore down' in the maximized window it minimizes instead of going into a resizable window.
>>>I tried renaming the foxuser, and the only change was that it will show the command window like a top level window, but the main VFP window behaves the same.
>>>Reboting didn't help.
>>>I also have VFP5, and VFP9 installed on the same WS - they behave normally.
>>>The OS is XP SP1. I don't know if it is a coincidence, but this started after installing SP3 for MS Office XP 2002.
