Load Event triggers

[syswizard]

We have a call to a long running procedure in both Open and Load event handlers. One reason for this is to insure it executes if the user goes into design mode and back to form view.
If a form is hidden, and then made visible, does that fire the Load event handler ?

Why are you allowing users to put your form in design view

Perhaps this link will help with your other question.

Easy enough to find out. Put a message box in the event and test your different scenarios.

I know, I know...that's what I said to my boss.
I was going to set the shortcut property to false to prevent this, but he said "no".
Strange.....

Visible=False to Visible=True does not trigger the Activate event handler....interesting.
Load is triggered when going from design to form mode.
