VB controls does not repaint

[vbtest5]

Hi,

I have an MDI main menu. I call a vb form "XX" from it. From that VB form "XX", I call another modal form. When when the user closes the modal form and comes back to the "XX" form, the text boxes on the 'XX", which gets under the modal form, does not repaint itself unless I switch to another application and come back again. This means all text boxes and combo appear with grey background. Why does this happen?

Regards,
V.

Try putting a DoEvents in the line after the call to the modal form:

XX.Show vbModal

DoEvents
