On my main machine, that form displays properly with fields appearing in a light gray with black text. When the mouse cursor goes to a particular field, the field (as expected) becomes black, and the text, white. Yesterday, I was at another machine, and opened the form. It looked fine, until I clicked on any field. With that, the field became opaque white, and no text was visible. At that point, if I clicked on the field again, it appeared as it should: black field, with white text. |

Dunno why this should send your font white when you fire your color changing code, but it's something to check. Jim Hargan Hey Jim, I appreciate your comment... As it turns out, my son had set the system with the problem to 256, rather than to 32 bit, color. That caused the odd difficulty I had. |
