>I have using a formset for a group of related forms in an app I am building. I have used both the .Visiable properties and the .Show and .Hide methods and both work while in design. I have built the App using the application architecture in VFP 6 and when I run the executable, then run the form set, all the forms show. I have tried forcing the Hide method by putting This.hide in the init event of the forms or This.[FormName].hide in the init event of the form set and neither work. Any Ideas (besides using ProMatrix, LOL)?

That shouldn't happen (though I haven't used formsets lately), must be the app arch. How about locating them off the screen, if This.hide in the Init() won't work:

This.left = -10000

Then bring them back as needed (if it works).
