Thanks, one and all, The problem has been solved. It was just something in the code. My customer's problems ranged from opening with a window that was off the screen to not running at all exept for a system error report. The changes I made were in FormShow and in a Timer.The timer was enabled at startup with 200 ms and immediatly disabled itself. FormShow automatically opened and read a bitmap file and a text file. I changed it so that the automatic file opening was suppressed (unless the user checked a menu option for future use). I also did not enable the timer until the end of ShowForm was reached. ShowForm figured out the bounds of the form based on reading a .ini file (shich ShowForm always does) and the Taskbar settings. The SetBounds call was not made until inside the timer function. Before and after the changes the application ran fine on my computers. But, after these changes, my customer in Ireland reported that it opened with its window off his screen. He commented out some of the code in FormShow and then it opened for him with a small window (Probably the one I used at design time) and all was well thereafter. I apologize for the scrappy initial posting but I had not used this facility for years and did know whether or not it would post. I was suprised to see that my daughter, Lynne's contact info. was attached instead of my own. It is really good to know that Team B and the rest of you are looking at these postings. This application was written with Borland C++ Builder 4.0 on a Windows 2003 small business server operating system. Thanks again, Brian Daniels
