    actually I mean the menu bar, so that the flash is full screen but you can toggle between several different apps that are running...what I have is a stand alone flash exe and I want it to run full screen but the menu bar of windows stays along the bottom instead of flash overtaking everything.
    but thank you for taking the time to try and answer!

    The "menu" bar at the bottom of the screen on Windows is called the taskbar. The terminology probably threw Timtendo off a bit

    For a quick solution to your problem, grab a copy of my FREE ncstart utility and use it to start your application like this:

    Code:
    ncstart.exe /e myapp.exe /m /b
    The /e argument is followed by the executable you want to start. The /m argument tells ncstart to maximize your application and the /b argument tells ncstart to remove the border (and title bar).

    If you want to get rid of the Flash menu (that appears at the top of your Flash movie) then you can just add fscommand("showmenu", "false") in the first frame of your movie.
    When your swf2exe tool just HAS to work
    there's only one choice... SWF Studio
