Frank, Jeff;
As usual your advice is good and fast.
I tried the minimize idea cause it sounded cool.
It works but the final window does not POP open but
grows open in a not to "pretty" way. There may be a solution but
I went on to idea 2.
Working from Jeff's inspiration I changed the launch
>from c:\---script.ksc
to c:\---k95g c:\---script.ksc �-xpos:15 -�ypos:15
15/15 being the corner for the final frame.
This met my original objective very well. Although the frame does
resize
A couple of times before the final size and font are established, the
corner anchor and a pretty consistent header allow the changes to look
like progress rather than disorder.
Question: Without the �-xpos �-ypos the initial frame seems to open
at
A semi-random location. Is there some rhyme or reason?
Thanks again for an outstanding product and great support.
Regards�Dan.
