blinking form...
Hi,
When i use this command: DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acRecordsMenu, 5, , acMenuVer70 The code is used on several things; - a combobox - afterupdate() - a button - a group checkbox The form blinks with every update. Is there a way to prevent the form from blinking ? I hope to hear from you ! Best regards and thanks in advance, Pierre |

Those menu commands are from Access 95 and while still supported, are no
longer used. The current useage is: DoCmd.RunCommand acCmd?? Since I don't know what you are trying to accomplish, look at the RunCommand Constants site: http://www.accessruncommand.com/ -- Arvin Meyer, MCP, MVP http://www.datastrat.com http://www.accessmvp.com http://www.mvps.org/access Co-author: "Access 2010 Solutions", published by Wiley "Pierkes" wrote in message ...

blinking form...
Hi,
Thanks you for replying to me ! I replaced all my code with your suggestion but the screen still blinks when it is updated. I have seen apps in the past where, when a screen is updated, only the value in the fields is updated without the form blinking. (so it looks smoother) Do you know how to accomplish that ? thanks, Pierre "Arvin Meyer [MVP]" wrote in message ...

Often video resources are low when that happens. Turn on your task manager
and have a look at the performance tab while you are doing this task. If there's no spiking, turn on your performance monitor: Start Run perfmon.exe and monitor the activity for a while to see if that could be the cause. -- Arvin Meyer, MCP, MVP http://www.datastrat.com http://www.accessmvp.com http://www.mvps.org/access Co-author: "Access 2010 Solutions", published by Wiley "Pierkes" wrote in message ...
