Hi there!

I'm trying to create some applications using Power Objects and now I'm hoping that someone could give me some hints about displaying bitmaps.

I'd like to display a bitmap on the application window at startup without having to display it as a form called by the OnLoad method of the application. Is this possible?

If I have to display it on a form called from the OnLoad method the form is treated as any other form. That is: You can see it as an active form in the "menubar"-window-menu. You can bring it on front covering all the other forms. I don't want this to be possible. Can I avoid this and only keep the form in the background after it has been shown at startup?  

Have you any suggestions or other solutions for this please let me know.

Thanks in advance!

Happy new year!!!
