You are able to call paramstr() anywhere in your app so why not just use it in the constructor or show event of your form?

Passing command line to the app is easy. But unfortunately there is a problem that the form is not created yet, so you cannot pass parameters to the component settings (my parameter contains a bunch of settings). The obvious easy solution would be to start a timer in the program which fires a few ms after formcreate has finished, checking to see if paramstr(1) has a relevant string, but that is too easy and a waste of a timer. Is there anything else I can do which is more program-sense? I prefer that the form is not visible at all. But the call would still have to wait till all controls are enabled before progressing to the settings area.
Thanks, Alistair+
