Try turning everything off in Group policy and the user interface that you can 
find to do with security, user passwords, logon etc. 

That’s why you can’t buy Vista anymore! Sounds like stuff is running but 
looking for approval to show.

Thanks David, the original application is Accounting for Delphi. It does, as 
best as I can determine, "remember" last screen size/position. 

I can not start the other programs (modules) although the task manager says 
they are running.

The curious thing, to me, is that when I start the 'real' main menu, the splash 
screen appears, the user id/pw screen appears and the "main" menu screen 
appears. I even moved the main menu to a different screen position and when I 
restarted the app the main menu appeared where I had placed it. But when I 
select another program/module from that main menu that program does show.

So I'm still at a lost as to what to do.

Charlie

Do you save and restore the last positions of the windows?

I’ve fallen into the trap of having left or top positions outside the screen on 
start up.

 

Also, what code are you using to start the other programs? Can you start them 
manually?

Hi, Until Wednesday I was developing using an XP laptop with Delphi 2007 and 
DBase files. My computer died and I borrowed my son's laptop which has Vista. I 
installed Delphi 2007 with the 3rd party controls, copied my program (.pas 
files) and recompiled my program. Actually I did this with two programs. The 
second one runs both within the IDE and outside the IDE. The first program will 
load the main form (outside of the IDE) but when I click a button to open 
another form which is data dependent the form doesn't show. Actually the 
application has exe's that are called in the onclick event of the buttons; for 
example order entry, inventory, customer add/edit, etc. I click the order entry 
button and task manager shows the exe is running; however the form doesn't show 
on the laptop.

I sincerely appreciate any suggestions.

Charlie
