The form seems to be more than moved: I call CtlNewControl right after calling FrmInitForm for a modal dialog and pass it &form. After that, several buttons see their text changed. I suspected a conflicting ID with internal object I didn't know about, so I chose 10000, way above any resource in my application, to no avail.
Nope. You've hit one of the bugs with dynamic controls in Palm OS; the code that fixes internal pointers in the form sometimes identifies text as a pointer and causes corruption. This bug wasn't completely fixed until Palm OS 4.1, IIRC. This happening is a good argument against using dynamic forms unless you really, really need them.
