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

What code is used to launch the programs?  From: delphi-boun...@delphi.org.nz

program still doesn't appear. Oh, the settings are in afd.ini.Charlie

Date: Saturday, May 14, 2011, 8:50 PMWhere does it store the positions? 
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
