Gerard, the problem here that you probably have reordered your pages in the grid. NUMBER is not a property, it is an actual number of the active page in the display order.
ActivePage is based on the display order of the pages and equals the PageOrder of a page which is currently active. So, if you reordered pages after creation of the pageframe, and moved your Page10 to 8th place in display order, now .Pages(ActivePage) points to the wrong one.

To make it working right, you should loop through the .Pages() collection and find the page which is currently ActivePage

WITH THIS.
	.SETALL('Forecolor', RGB(128,128,128),'Page')
	FOR N = 1 TO .PAGECOUNT
		IF .ACTIVEPAGE = .PAGES(N).PAGEORDER
			.PAGES(N).FORECOLOR = RGB(255,0,0)
* do whatever else
			EXIT
		ENDIF
	ENDFOR
ENDWITH

Hope this helps.
