>on this form I have several timers with display several images on and off effectively and when a data entry window is opened I >get"row or position is off screen". I need to know where and what code to correct this or hide the images. Thank you.

Is it possible that the objects controled by the timer are not fully referenced to the container on which they reside and so when your new window exists the timer events attempts to reference the objects incorrectly? - jp
