>I have an object based on a container. This object contains an oleboundcontrol and a combobox. The combobox contains a list of captions, and picking one displays the relevant picture in the oleboundcontrol. The pictures and captions are held in a table, and the combobox merely navigates through the table, refreshing the oleboundcontrol when an item is picked in the combobox.

>This works fine in Windows 95, 98 and NT 4.0. However, on Windows 2000 Professional, the combobox and/or oleboundcontrol disappear from the form. Even though the combobox is not visible, the user is still able to click on the area containing the combobox and display/select from the items in the combo. The full combo isn't visible at that point, just the list of items contained in the combo.

Intentionaly tried to reproduce problem to no avail. Works right under VFP5 and VFP6 SP4.
