>I trid to myform_unhide()..but that does not work...

Robert, you obviously knew what Visible was because you mentioned it in your orginal post. If you had followed the SeeAlso links for Visible in the help file, you would have found Show(), and also Hide() and both have SeeAlso's to the other two too.

I take it you didn't look in the Help system, and it almost appears as if you rarely do. Depending on users of the UT answer questions that can be resolved with "F1" is pathetic.

If FoxHelp.CHM does not exist on your computer, you either don't own it or didn't install it (VS6 ships with the MSDN disks).

Either way, you can get to the docs online for free at:
