Yes, it is documentated in FrmDrawForm (I just read it). But what do you
mean by draw? Does it include using FrmHideObject and FrmShowObject etc.?

Congratulations!
:)
It drove me nuts, too, before I solved it.
But amazingly, it is documented - but it's one of those explanations that
you only tend to find when you read the docs cover to
cover, (and only retain in your mind once you got burned by it), since the
bus error by itself wouldn't suggest which OS call was
"involved". :)
If I remember, I think they put the notice about this under the docs for
FrmDrawForm, or maybe some of the OS functions that call
FrmDrawForm.
