Screen Flickers

Hi, I just loaded a database form created in Access 2000
on a machine with Access2003. When I open any form, moving
the mouse over the fields causes the screen to flicker.
This does not happen on the access2000 machine. Any Ideas
anyone?

Thanks
Wendy

Your form uses a tab control? Unattached labels flicker like crazy in A2003
if their Parent is not the form (e.g. a tab control).

There is some code in this link that searches all your forms, and converts
all these unattached labels into text boxes with properties that look like

If you are not using a tab control, it could also be related to conditional
formattting. See:
