VFP creates a hole in it's own form-window where that ActiveX is then peeking through. For the user there is no visual difference, but programmatically it's a foreign module. With making it invisible, VFP just closes that hole in it's window, and then reopens it, which then forces the ActiveX module to use that hole... -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: ProFox <[email protected]> Im Auftrag von [email protected] Gesendet: Sonntag, 27.
