Thanx Fred,

I did find that slider but I could not reduce the slider. Apparently it is not supported by the hardware or the monitor. I do hope that there is some software solution to this and will try to pursue it.

Thanx for your suggestion, unfortunately I am not able to use it.

>You have this slider regardless. I don't think it has to do with the actual hardware as much as NT/W2K/XP telling it to use it or not.

>>I face these probs with Win 2K and NT, haven't checked out with XP. The monitor and cards are the normal ones and they dont have any Graphics Acceleration capabilities. I suspect VFP Refresh failure as the issue because if I ALT-Tab into some other open application or minimise and maximise the VFP application, everything comes up correctly. Is there some way to do so from within the application without causing a flicker or disappearing of the application from the desktop?

>>>Try reducing the Graphics acceleration for your video card. In XP, that's right click on the desktop, choose "Properties", Setting tab, Advanced button. Then on the Troubleshoot tab, reduce the hardware acceleration slider.
