Form Refresh Problem

[Petchy]

I have a form with a number of controls such as combo boxes and labels on it. When I select an item from a combo box that will update other controls on the form it seems to lose focus on a number of controls and just leaves a white space where they should be. If I click on them the controls will appear but still miss their borders. I've tried refreshing the controls, re-setting focus and doevents (although i've not used this before) without success. However if I step though my code i have no problem and can see all controls. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Petchy,

I'm not that good in VB,
but you say you refreshed the controls.
Did you also do a form.refresh ?
maybe a silly answer but you never know...

Could be the available RAM causing problems with the drawing of controls.. Did you try another machine or can you reduce the number of controls?
