I've found what we were using back then... though it was a scrollbar ocx, not a slider - but it should be the same.

We had a visible_assign method for the object which contained the scrollbar.
So,

			.ScrollBarHorizontal.ZOrder( 0 )
			.ScrollBarHorizontal.UIEnable( .T. )
			.ScrollBarHorizontal.SetFocus( )
			.ScrollBarHorizontal.Visible = .T.

(The UIE() was there probably because the container was on a page of a pageframe)
Don't know which one of these (if any) may help in your case.
