OK. I'm dynamically creating up to 40 gadgets, doing hit testing on 
the gadget bounds,then removing all the dyn gadgets with one loop 
using  FrmHideObject and FrmRemoveObject. The sequence then repeats. 
I'll try the refresh approach. Any other ideas based on what I've 
described?
Thanks for your responses,
Owen
