Hi everyone,

I am new to this forum and I have a problem that I couln't find any solution.

I'm using Windows Vista and Visual FoxPro 9.0 SP2, I am maintaining an application for one of my customers and since last time I built it behaves weird, after launching,
it displays the splash screen and it dissapears from the screen.

While the application runs fine inside the VFP environment, first I check the READ EVENTs and it is there, nothing was changed. Then I check the application process, and it dissapears from the memory, like the application finishes correctly.

What I noticed that differs in the new exe is that is about 500kb smaller than the previous that is working and that can be a hint but I don't know where to look for.

Also I noticed after launching the exe, while displaying the splash screen if I run it the exe again it opens and run fine, so in other words if my exe it is still in memory like a process and I launch it again, it works, but is annoying to launch the application two times every time.

I am asking now for your help, please.
Thanks in advance.
 

I found my issue, I had to put explicit in my program:
_Screen.Visible = .T.

This variable hasn't been set in my program since I remember but now for some reason I must do it, some latest modifications made could have triggered this.

Thanks for bearing with me.
