My comment:
_SCREEN Width and Height properties depend on location of system menu (try RELEASE MENU _msysmenu), on status bar (try SET STATUS BAR ON/OFF). And of course, it depends on where system toolbar members placed.

Remove some or all objects :status bar, system menu, tool bars to check how it affects the output of this code.
