O I C !
Well it sounds like the "Left" and "Top" values of the form are going a bit screwy.
Do you want the form maximised as soon as it starts up?
You could see if this would help. Try putting it in you Form1.Create procedure
Form1.Left := 0;
Form1.Top := 0;
You said you have played around with the "Position" property as well yes?
poScreenCentre etc
DO you use some of these events:
procedure TForm1.FormActivate(Sender
begin
//........
end;
procedure TForm1.FormPaint(Sender: TObject);
begin
//........
end;
procedure TForm1.FormResize(Sender: TObject);
begin
//........
end;
procedure TForm1.FormShow(Sender: TObject);
begin
//........
end;
Check them for any statements like:
Height := ....;
Width := ....;
Left := ....;
Top := ....;
handle the maximizing like this :
unit Unit1;
interface
uses
Windows, Messages, SysUtils, Variants, Classes, Graphics, Controls, Forms,
Dialogs;
type
TForm1 = class(TForm)
private
procedure OnMaximize(var Msg : TMessage); message WM_SYSCOMMAND;
procedure OnNCClick (var Msg : TMessage); message WM_NCLBUTTONDBLCLK;
public
end;
var
Form1: TForm1;
implementation
{$R *.dfm}
{ TForm1 }
procedure TForm1.OnMaximize(var Msg: TMessage);
begin
if Msg.WParam = SC_MAXIMIZE then
begin
ShowMessage('Maximizing');
inherited;
end
else
inherited;
end;
procedure TForm1.OnNCClick(var Msg: TMessage);
begin
ShowMessage('Maximizing');
inherited;
end;
end.

hmm not heard of suipack before, but I presume you dont have your taskbar set to autohide or anything.
Is this problem happening when you run it through the IDE, just the executable, or both?
Does it happen when you have "WindowState = wsMaximized" at design time?
