Bernie, My code is in the "on row entry" EEP but I have used the same type of code in other areas of forms.
I saw that you were setting the BLINKINTERVALON in your code. I use the settings in the field rather than controlling via the EEP code. If you set the blink interval in your EEP I think that you will need a BLINKINTERVALOFF as well as a BLINKINTERVALON.

I tried putting it into forms properties in "after start" I still can't get it to blink.
