I knew should have read the rest of the thread before I posted. You probably already had it figured out. Changing the AutoYield to .T. is fine as long as you don't have any activex controls on the form. I don't know about you, but I don't use many of them anyway. We've got Refresh() and Release() methods in all our base classes just so we can expect to see a minimum consistent interface in all our classes and then work really hard to encapsulate everything. Where are you setting the Autoyield property? From within the label?
