Is there a setting that will prevent this from happening?

I will launch a program, see the splash screen, then sit and wait for the log-in for that program to appear. Finally it will dawn on me that the log-in has popped up behind another window on the second screen. As long as I remember that that is what happens sometimes (not always) I'm okay. But when I don't remember, I can sit there lost in thought for minutes, waiting.

Any way to assure all parts of a program launch on the same screen?

I have the start icon for program in question locked on taskbar 1, which is the screen I want the program and is the screen where I always run the program. I don't have any control commands set for it. I'm using Pro 8.1.2.

Thanks!

The "Centre child windows over parent window" option on the Settings > Window Management tab should do the trick :)

Hope that helps!

So glad it's an easy one! I've set that option. What about the two sub-options? Should I check either of them (modal windows or move child windows)?

I have the modal-only option enabled, but it just depends on your system and preference. I'd leave just the main option enabled for now, and enable the other two if you want to tweak the behaviour further.
