Malcolm, I think you are correct - definitely a lot of trouble. I'll sleep on it as I've got a working solution now so no great sweat!

The same principle applies to the VFP statusbar and menubar as well. One possible solution, albeit more complicated than its probably worth<g> 1. Create placeholder container classes for your menubar, toolbars and statusbar so that these items take up physical space on your design form. Note that the menubar and statusbar containers won't automatically adjust their heights based on system menu font settings but a builder could do this. 2. Place your tradional form contents in its own container. 3. In your form Init(): - remove the placeholder containers - shift the main form container to 0,0 - resize the form to account for the removed placeholder containers As I said ... seems more trouble than its worth?
