For example, when I get to a record that has a .F. value in the checkbox control, the controls referred to in the refresh method are still not visible. They become visible when I move to the next record. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here.

Since noone else has responded I'll take a shot. First is it possible that the default refresh must be called and this is why your value is no being updated properly. Maybe adding DODEFAULT prior to the above code will work. I'm guessing here. Hope I'm helping a little.
