>Something strange just happened to my main form. I was working on a method then I saved and recompiled, all of a sudden none of the objects in my form show! Why is that? Nothing seems to have changed, I've traced every single line and still the form won't refresh and paint the objects on it. I have a second form that loads NOSHOW automatically and it will show perfectly when I press the hotkey to activate it, but the main form still won't show no matter what. If I switch between applications, the area of my form will hold a picture capture of my previous window. Have any ideas? I have a demo today and this happens....

Gil,

I've had this and also seen others have the problem. I can't remember if this is the correct solution (it was some time ago) but try _screen.LockScreen=.F. hopefully, this is it,
