>Don't you think this code will work ?
Yeah that should work. In fact now that I see it I remember I did this a long time ago.
I actually ended up rearranging the pages in hte VCX which lets me get around this issue. This is part of some menu code that gets fired a lot so I want to avoid the overhead if possible.
Thanks for your help,
