Ok simple question guys I remember a while ago whilst reading up on DBPro I read that it can export straight to a windows screensaver. I've not had cause to use it yet, but now some1 has asked me to make 1 quickly and I tht DBP would be ideal. However after fiddling for a while in the interface and the help files I am none the wiser as to how to do this. If some1 could point me in the right direction I would be most grateful Thank you

I may be incorrect but this may just work,
Take your module.exe and rename it to module.scr

The more you see, the more you know.

There are other things to take into account, such as the command lines given when windows runs a screensaver, there are different ones for the settings window and preview window and stuff. I think there is a topic in the code snippets section from ages ago about this.
