Just out of interest Bob did you try my suggestions when I replied before? I also have an 8 page pageframe and each frame has 6 list boxes on them (plus other things) so its also quite complex.


>THANK YOU for the suggestion. But I am afraid it doesn't work. In fact, as I tested it, some of the listboxes appeared at first, then when I clicked on another page and came back they did not reappear.

>Do you have any other suggestions? What's really weird is I created a test form with the same number of pages and listboxes, and placed each listbox in the same order, then I used a simple query to add items to each list box, and I have no problems. But the form in our application is much more complex, and it has all sorts of objects on it and here's the weirdest part, after I select a listbox on page 5, all of the other listboxes become "clickable". ??

>Any Ideas would greatly be appreciated. I have a 15 year old application with over 100,000 lines of code where this form is a central to the whole app. and I need to be able to upgrade to 9.0 for the new report features... THANKS!! IN ADVANCE.
