>>>I have noticed a strange problem with bitmaps assigned to the picture property for command buttons. When the button is disabled when an application is running, the bitmap is completely grayed out in a block (even the bitmap outline is not visible). This happens only on machines with Windows NT; Windows 95 machines display correctly. Does anyone else have this problem, and if so, is there a workaround? Thanks.

Nope, for me it's definitely not NT. Both VFP 5 & 6 are on the same W95 box. VFP 6 is grayed out, VFP 5 is not.
