Chriss, Thanks you for your in-depth explanation of WSH and Powershell. I am always grateful for that. There is still a lot to learn, but that is a good thing, especially when you are already 83 years old. Best regards Klaus Peace worldwide - it starts here...

Mike, It works! Thank you very much. I only had to add an additional owsh.Sendkeys('{ENTER}') * Termschickn.prg - sends terms from VFP to Foxitpdfreader pdf-file (Foxitpdfreader = external program) * First, use ShellExecute() to launch the PDF in the user's default viewer. * I assume you...

Chriss I also thank you for your hints concerning Foxitpdfreader and Auto-It. Foxitpdfreader: It can also be helpful if you know that something does NOT work...that saves a lot of further attempts and energy. Auto-It: I have no experience with that yet, but I will look into it. Your sources can...

Mike: I tried your code as follows: * First, use ShellExecute() to launch the PDF in the user's default viewer. * I assume you already know how to do this. * Instantiate Windows Scripting Host *owsh = CREATEOBJECT("wscript.shell") * Switch to the PDF viewer *owsh.AppActivate("My Document") &&...

Via thread184-1829365 I got excellent help from here how to have access from VFP to Foxit-Reader. Many thanks, with that I can now switch between VFP and Foxit-Reader-pdf-files, have also now control over meanwhile 24 magazines each about 75 pages, can look everything what has been mentioned in...

Chriss, thanks for your deeper information. I didn't know that there was also a link for ggreen86's note to get to the editor. It was not visible in his 1st statement. I'll take a look at how to download it. greeting Klaus Peace worldwide - it starts here...

Greg and Chriss, Thanks for your discussion on my original question (sorting the objects in a form according to their types.) I imagine the editor Greg has written for this purpose has caused a lot of work, and this will be particularly helpful for complex projects. It would certainly not have...

Thank you Criss. Again I learned more. Klaus Peace worldwide - it starts here...

I have now brought the requested form to its default size (it is wide enough and now I could see also the cross top/right to close it. As you can see below in the setting, I reach the default directory where there is the form. (it is the directory c:\entw\product). What has to be as default...

I think you are right, Chriss - this was not yet the solution, because now the form which appears - I could not close it because there is no closing-cross (top/left) visible. I will be back, when I can answer your questions. Klaus Peace worldwide - it starts here...

I think I have found it: The form start (requested) showed ".T." in its properties "Auto center" (Don't now why). I changed it to ".F." and now is comes up immediately again. What is a ".T." good for? I found it, by creating another form and then compared the setting between both forms. Klaus...

Inexplicable behavior when I call up a form Up until now, a program worked well, it was called "start.prg" - it only contained the code: Do form start Form Start is a form with many buttons from which I can start various programs. For a few days now, however, the above form does not appear...

Thank you very much Chriss. I have to admit that you can make adjustments to an application much more effectively if several windows are available at the same time arranged appropriately on the screen. I have never done that before - it avoids a lot of unnecessary opening and closing of windows...

What does it mean - if you have the windows handle? Peace worldwide - it starts here...

Mike Lewis, I tested your code - it runs well. Thank you. Peace worldwide - it starts here...
