>Another issue is the time needed to instantiate the native controls and the time needed to bind them to the datasources. Comboboxes and listboxes are notorious because when they're bound to many items it takes quite a while to instantiate. When you are using textboxes based on a custom class, you classcode might be the bottleneck. Try to minimize the custom code in the INIT event of such objects.

Hi,

When the problem is the loading of some controls like Walter said, then you can also place this controls in a container class, and add this container to your page at the activate event of that page with the following code :

ThisForm.lockscreen = .t.
If This.controlcount = 0
	Wait 'Loading page ...' window nowait noclear
	This.addobject('Yourclass','YourClass')
	This.YourClass.visible = .t.
	Wait clear
Endif
This.refresh
ThisForm.lockscreen = .f.
