Thanks Patrick,Searched for Vista group policies. Vista home doesn't have this;
but followed directions to change UAC in the registry by changing value to 0. I
actually changed the admin and user value to 0. Now I can run the program from
the IDE.
But I think that I found the culprit - Google Chrome. When it is running the
app doesn't appear outside or inside the IDE. When it isn't running then it
appears. Can't believe I've spent 12 hours dealing with this because of
Google/Vista ugh

Try turning everything off in Group policy and the user interface
that you can find to do with security, user passwords, logon etc.
That’s why you can’t buy Vista anymore! Sounds like stuff is
running but looking for approval to show.

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.

Do 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?

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
