Followup quick question about Form

Thank you, Manuel, and I have a related followup question ...
with VB6 I was able to set the form Me.Left and Me.Top in the Form Load() process (with StartupPosition = Manual). I wasn't successful doing this with Jabaco. Is something else required?

Hi,
properties like "top" and "left" don't change the form position in "Form_Load".
"Me.Refresh" does not help either.
Try using "Form_Resize" instead. Use a flag variable to distinguish between 1st resize and normal resize.
Strangely enough, "Form_Resize" gets called four times after the initial Form_Load without any resizing taking place.

Greetings!

Thank you for the ideas, "A1". Yes, that worked well! It would be very useful if these great ideas, hints and differences from VB were written somewhere. Thank you again.
