> I need to run a simple VFP EXE that checks some tables and sends an Email, if required every half an hour through Windows Task Scheduler. (For some reason, I can't have the application running all the time and perform the task through a VFP Timer.) I don't want to display the application on the screen when it launches. I used the following commands in the application.

Setting Visible property in the application is too late :-)
Make an Config.FPW file and put this line in it:
SCREEN=OFF
Built this file IN the EXE.
