Try adding in Thisform.LockScreen = .T. before calling MyResize() and Thisform.LockScreen = .F. after setting the Tag. That might help the flicker.

When I did this I was using an ActiveX control (ListView)only and the Lockscreen didn't seem to work against it. With native container though, it might.

>>I hit this before in one of my own. Try working in the Activate Event. See if that helps. You may need to block it off with something like:
>>
>>IF EMPTY(THISFORM.Tag)
>> thisform.MyResize()
>> thisform.Tag = "1"

>>ENDIF
