Hi Peter,

(also thanks to Dragan for his suggestion)

Thanks for the reply. I did some tests and it seems that I can do this easily enough. Still, it's an annoying limitation (like the stupid 255 char SQL statement garbage - argh!) and one MS should've "fixed".

Does anyone know of/have to share a pageframe class that incorporates scroll bars? There's another feature I'd like to see in VFP[next].

And yes, the jump can of course (by itself) be used. If the Mhz is allright I can promise you it all works fine. BTW, I don't think there is so much difference from VFP's (6) internal redraw, since you yourself don't do that much of a difference; the form just is there completely, but the visible area is tightened. Of course you have to set it up with the proper containers.
