Did you try to code the [On Close] event (report properties) to either open
your main screen or quit application?
I have a similar problem to Bill's...
Evertyhing work but when I run a simulation as what a user is supposed to
do. When a form opens, the name of the form shown in the Blue title bar. Is
there a way to hide the blue title bar? I have hidden the command and
toolbars already.
