I have a six-form page frame. Some forms require that prior pages be completed first. Is there a way to hide inaccessable pages? I don't want to put a method in a form init event to show a messagebox to the user saying other pages must be completed first. Rather I need to hide (or create the impression of hiding) the inaccessable pages.

I could create layers of page frames (or maybe not), but this is so complicated that it is smarter/faster to avoid page frames altogether.

Is there a way to mimic the look of page frames with sound programming? I used an alternative method with command buttons in another VFP6 application avoiding page frames.

Is there an enhanced third-party product that gives developers more control over page frames?

The Twin Cities VFP Users Group members advise me not to use page frames unless absolutely necessary. I guess they are right, but I don't listen when my wife gives me directions while driving either.
