I have looked through the archives and cannot find this question. I have built my application with DESKTOP = .T. and this works great except when I launch a normal browse from within a form it stays inside the main VFP window. How do I get it outside so it will be on the desktop also?
Thanks,

Gary,
One way would be to create a top-level form with a GRID on it.

DEFINE WINDOW BROWSE_WIN FROM 1,25 TO 50,110 GROW FLOAT FONT 'Arial', 8 IN DESKTOP

ACTIVATE WINDOW BROWSE_WIN NOSHOW
BROWSE NOAPPEND NODELETE NOMODIFY WINDOW BROWSE_WIN
