Agreed. What I'm hoping the VFP Team can do is give us a GDI+ layer for UI just like in VFP report. Until then I will continue trap system messages (discard some override others) and double buffer draw. I hope to publish a VFP article on this soon, keep your fingers crossed for luck.<g> Thanks for the reply Fabio.
