>I am trying to set the main VFP window to maximise and use it instead of a main form to house the other forms of my application. I would therefore prefer if this window cannot be restored to any other size and only be minimized or quitted. To accomplish this I have issued the following commands in a UDF called at the start of the application - _screen.windowstate = 2 and _screen.maxbutton = .f. . The problem is that the VFP window hides the taskbar although the taskbar is fixed at the bottom of the screen and it's properties are set to always on top. I'll be gratefull if anyone can tell me why this is happeing and how to get around it...

Hi,
You can set the _screen.height to show the taskbar.
