>Hi All,

>This is a question that I should know the answer to, but somehow my mind went out to lunch and didn't come back! I have a 3-form formset. All forms are visible=.F. / enabled = .F. yet all forms in the set briefly flash when the formset is launched. What am I missing to keep these critters hidden until I want to unhide them? I am running VFP 5.0a with SP3 from the Vis Studio suite. TIA

Normally, they shouldn't. But anyway you can enhance your code or your approach. You can e.g. set FormX.Left=-2000 initially, and reset Left=0 to really show it. Also, it's a good idea to use flexible formset (anyway you use it already), it means that initially you bring up empty formset (no forms) and then use Formset.Add(Remove)Object to work with Formset.forms
