>>I have a container that exands whenever the mouse moves over a label in the corner and returns to default size when the mouse is not over it. I want to use a timer (I think) to have it only happen when the mouse is over the label for a specified time. This will eliminate inadvertant resizing of the container. I'm thinking of having a form property to handle whether the mouse is over the label and then compare the previous and current coordinates in the timer. Sound reasonable or is there a cleaner way? Thanks!

Larry,

VFP6. I didn't think to add that as we still have a VFP7 section in the forum...
