Preventing FoxPro Main Screen From Displaying in .EXE

[GabovitchE]

Hi,<br>
<br>
I've created an VFP 5.0 app using the Wizard.<br>
<br>
I've placed in the main program &quot;_Screen.Visible = .F.&quot; to hide the main screen.<br>
<br>
However, when I run the .exe, the Main Screen pops up for a half second. (Ahhh!)<br>
<br>
How can I prevent this from happening, so the user just sees the quickstart form, and not the &quot;white flash&quot; of the Main Screen.<br>
<br>
Thanks!

Try this in your main program:<br>
<br>
CLEAR<br>
ZOOM WINDOW SCREEN MAX<br>
DEACTIVATE WINDOW "Project Manager"<br>
SET SYSMENU SAVE<br>
SET SYSMENU OFF<br>
<br>
Hope this helps.

Insert in the main directory of exe a file named &quot;config.fpw&quot; and write in it the following line:

SCREEN=OFF

You may also want to include the config.fpw in your exe build under category OTHER FILES
