Hi!

I guess this is a refreshing behaviour during loading the form. When form is dis[played first time, for some reason temporarily label's Enabled property was .T. for a moment of form displaying. After form displayed, your code runs and sets label's property to .F.. This usually should cause label's refresh, but looks like it does not fire or some sequense of events for form initializing cause cancelling of the refreshing.

Try to call a Draw method of the form in the Activate event, but I'm not sur ethis can help...
