David, I'm sorry for the delay in responding to this question.
I be frank (I'm such a beginner programmer) I can't figure out exactly how the
exe is called once a speed button is clicked on the main form.
It looks like the first thing that is done is to determine if the user login
has permission to call that module/program. Once that is done then it appears
that it associates a value in a list with the form that corresponds to the
speed button that was clicked. But what actually happens to start the exe for
example afdoe.exe for orders I haven't been able to figure out.
I can send you the .pas if you would like.
Charlie

Registry or .ini file? Have a look where the forms left and top are... Set them
to 0,0. From: delphi-boun...@delphi.org.nz

Subject: Re: [DUG] Delphi 2007 & Vista Thanks David, the original application
is Accounting for Delphi. It does, as best as I can determine, "remember" last
screen size/position. I can not start the other programs (modules) although the
task manager says they are running.The curious thing, to me, is that when I
start the 'real' main menu, the splash screen appears, the user id/pw screen
appears and the "main" menu screen appears. I even moved the main menu to a
different screen position and when I restarted the app the main menu appeared
where I had placed it. But when I select another program/module from that main
menu that program does show.So I'm still at a lost as to what to do.Charlie

Date: Saturday, May 14, 2011, 8:19 PMDo you save and restore the last positions
of the windows?I’ve fallen into the trap of having left or top positions
outside the screen on start up. Also, what code are you using to start the
other programs? Can you start them manually? From: delphi-boun...@delphi.org.nz

Subject: [DUG] Delphi 2007 & Vista Hi, Until Wednesday I was developing using
an XP laptop with Delphi 2007 and DBase files. My computer died and I borrowed
my son's laptop which has Vista. I installed Delphi 2007 with the 3rd party
controls, copied my program (.pas files) and recompiled my program. Actually I
did this with two programs. The second one runs both within the IDE and outside
the IDE. The first program will load the main form (outside of the IDE) but
when I click a button to open another form which is data dependent the form
doesn't show. Actually the application has exe's that are called in the onclick
event of the buttons; for example order entry, inventory, customer add/edit,
etc. I click the order entry button and task manager shows the exe is running;
however the form doesn't show on the laptop.I sincerely appreciate any
suggestions.Charlie
