I don't think it does either, Doug. But I just wonder about the possibility
for confusion when on the one hand you tell a function not to create a
window and on the other tell it to hide it.

In any event, I just now set the default for cmd windows to be full-screen
and tried my hack again on XP/SP2. No window that I could see, no switch to
full-screen mode.

Then I copied the hack to an old and slow 2K box, set the default to be
full-screen and got the same result.

I wonder if the results depend on the image that the created process runs?

Regards,
Will
