Hi Rodolfo,

Thanks for your answer, I put these two lines in the project source file
just after the application initialize line and the creation of the
application main form

Application->Initialize();
Application->Title = "Project1";
Application->CreateForm(__classid(TForm1), &Form1);

Application->ShowMainForm = false;
ShowWindow(Application->Handle, SW_HIDE);


thanks
