>I have an ActiveX control that I do not want the user to click into. The control does *NOT* have a readonly property. I want to put a transparent label over the ActiveX control, but everything I do it, the ActiveX control comes to top. I have tried everything, the Z-order etc. One weird thing I have found is any VFP activeX control does the same thing as well, always on top.

Dale,

That's been the standard behavior in VFP with ActiveX Controls, and I'm afraid that there's nothing that can be done. In fact, you have to be very careful with the way you reference your forms. For example, _SCREEN.ActiveForm may actually be a reference to the control and not the form that contains it.

The cause is the way VFP implements its interface as opposed to other languages.
