I also sometimes do have this if I have ActiveX-c'in a container that toggles from nonvis to visible. In theese cases I have to issue

This.container.Visible        = .T.
This.Container.ActiveX.Visble = .T.

Especially if the ActiveX is already in a visible-State but the container
around it (in this case the form) is not.


Sometimes the ActiveX itself is a container having objects in theese cases I do have to issue

This.container.ActiveX.Object.Visible = .T.

Sometimes it helps to explicitly toggle the state of the control doing something stupid like

This.Container.ActiveX.Visble = .F.
This.Container.ActiveX.Visble = .T.

Hiding needs to be the other way round i.e. first the ActiveX then the container.

This.Container.ActiveX.Visble = .F.
This.container.Visible        = .F.

Hope this helps.
