<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>A&nbsp;few observations running 
(D2007) delphi programs under Vista - anyone shed any light?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>1 - When the mouse is on the task bar 
icon, &nbsp;Sometimes Vista will show a thumbnail of the form, sometimes just a 
blank thumbnail with the program icon in it.&nbsp; This relates to Delphi 
programs&nbsp;having an invisible "real" main form.&nbsp; But Vista does often 
get the thumbnail display right with the actual form contents showing - 
why?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>2 - The default Deplhi Vista form 
colour is a grey (clBtnFace) .....can this be tweaked?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>3 - The IDE often shows 2 icons in 
the task bar.&nbsp;&nbsp; I learnt the hard way not to close the one that looks 
like its doing nothing&nbsp; (it closes the whole IDE shooting 
box).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>4 - Programs I have written that get 
a UAC confirmation/prompt to run - are there any ways to turn this 
off?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>5 - Such programs that require a UAC 
confirmation will not run in the IDE, so cannot be debugged.&nbsp; Any 
solution?</FONT></DIV>
