You mean like a "Set Window on" command?There's one.

OR...Do you mean a "Set Display Mode" command...also there.

Read the manual,commands section.

No, I think he means run DB in minimized. So, when you test your program it is minimized and you see your desktop as well.

What's wrong with using the Set window on then???

I thought it was my desktop that showed under the program...Got ripped off again I guess!!! j/k

Actually,I think that's the command,or do you want to start the program and then you see ONLY the desktop??Then use HIDE Window command...

The code would be:

Set Display Mode 800,600,16: `Sets the screen resolution
Set Window On: `Create the window
Set Window Size 200,150: `Size the window
Set Window Title "My First Window" `Puts 'My first window' in taskbar.

Whatever I did I didn't do it!
