>>You might set step on (or employ a messagebox) and check how it cycles - it sounds likes its cycling through a method or setting a property more than once.

>There isnt any code in the evnets or methods of the active x... I think it might be related to how fox updates the pixels on the screen... Someone once posted how fox does that... blt by blt or something like that... I remmeber that someone was talking about citrix and how you need to set bitmap off in the config.fxp to stop unecessary entire screen refreshes ??? Maybe its refreshing the entire control when its unneeded

Help talks about AUTOYIELD in association with activeX. But the ocx Active X doesn't need it.

Also - you can try putting in "inside" a container, before placing it on your form. Does the vendor have sample VFP code? Flickering is not good.

When I change rows with the up or down arrow keys the whole control seems to flash each time, but it does not do this with mouse clicks ???
What has the vendor said about this? It sure seems that the arrow keys are firing a nodeclick twice.

This sure seems like an issue I would have the vendor solve - or ask for "my" money back. Does it have an advantage over the MS-Listview?
