My users are on Win 98 machines with their desktops locked down. They run a "Link" file (shortcut) from the Start - Programs button. THe link launches a VB5 (SP3) .EXE which opens up with only the lower right corner of the form visible in the upper left corner of the screen. It used to work fine. Something changed on the last recompiling but I can't figure out what.

The WindowState = Maximized and the StartUp Position= Center Screen. What's happened to my .Exe? The early bird may get the occasional worm...
but the 2nd mouse always gets the cheese.
 
Go into your project's .vbw file and examine the numbers in there. I suspect some of them may be negative. (these are the window positions of your code windows and forms).
