>I'm using VFP5.0 I have a multipage (pageframe) form. On one page there are a number of OptionButtons which depending on one's input will interactively move the user to a control (usually a grid) on another page. In order to accomplish this I use MOUSE CLICK AT #,# (in the InteractiveChangeEvent of the OptionButton) to move to the page I want activated with a SET FOCUS command to the specific control on the page.

Originally I used the ACTIVATE/DEACTIVATE commands but found when I returned to the original page the previously activated page(or parts of it) bled through the screen leaving "ghosts"; so the mouse click solution worked once I found the right coordinates.

Lincoln, actually to activate another page you are supposed to use the code like:

thisform.pgfPageFrame1.Activepage = 2
