Hi Jorge,

No I am not using CLEAR. I am just clicking my mouse on an object so I can get to its properties and modify them. Sometimes the object vanishes, but sometimes other objects disappear. Then they magically reappear after I go around the form clicking in the general vicinity of where the objects disappeared, then they reappear if I hit the right spot. So I never lose them forever. But it is scary.

I thought maybe if I did a screen refresh while I was looking at the form the objects might repaint without me having to click all around. I also know that sometimes half of an object disappears, but sometimes a whole object or many whole objects disappear. I have even seen 3 halves of objects disappear and then reappear after I click in various spots on the background shape object. But it seems I have to click an area where the shape is not covered by an object. I hope this doesn't sound too confusing. It's hard to explain it.

I noticed that it doesn't happen on simple forms when I work on them. Only forms with many objects and with a shape object as their background.

Thanks for helping.

Sincerely,
