Matt, You can't control it natively under VFP unfortunately .... unless you use the coding I posted onto Ed's Profox board.
This gets a handle on the window and moves it to wherever you want. Just looked and it doesn't seem to be there ... or did I not post it ... Mmmmmm! Anyway, emailed it direct to you so check email Dave -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Matt Slay Sent: 21 October 2011 14:35 To: [email protected] Subject: What controls MessageBox positon? I have a dual monitor setup, and I have my VFP IDE window streeeeeetched across both monitors. I have a few tools that I use from my IDE, and one of them throws up a native FoxPro MessageBox(), but it appears in the center of my *right* monitor, rather than centered across the entire window span, as do all other MessageBox() 'es I've seen. I cannot replicate this behavior from the Command Window, as each time I try it, it appears centered across the overall window, as expected. So I'm curious how the calling code (from the tool I'm using, which I have not studied yet), could be causing the MessageBox() to appear farther off the right like it is? I am not aware of any settings or flags that allow one to specify where the dialog appears.
