Thisform.ControlCount is the count of controls if you adress.
Controls[i] you mean control on pos i If you remove first element, second will be on pos 1 and so on.
Sooner or later the loop will fail because there will be no control I (IOW the initial control(controlcount) is now on a pos smaller then i.

>>>I think changing the visible setting is best but if you really want to remove them then you can loop through each object in the forms controlcount something like this:
>>>
>>>FOR i = 1 TO Thisform.ControlCount
>>> IF Thisform.Controls[i].BaseClass = "Label"
>>> Thisform.RemoveObject(Thisform.Controls[i].name)
>>> ENDIF
>>>NEXT
