Hi Allen,
>If I know that only one or two specific objects will need to be refreshed from a particular event on a complex form, is it faster to refresh the objects by direct referencing from the event or should I just let "ThisForm.refresh" handle all event refreshing and not worry about it? I want to keep form displays as snappy as possible for slower computers.
Unless there are only a few objects on the form, I'd go for the individual object refreshes. What THISFORM.REFRESH() does is fire the Refresh method for every object on the form.
HTH,
