Hi,
Due to a recent post, where I found out that I am unable to create controls at runtime on an Access form, I now have to create all my controls (100+ textboxes and labels) at design time and then change their position and/or size to hide them or show them at the correct time.
When the form is first opened, there is a moment where all the controls are visible shortly before the screen updates after my initial code has run and they all disappear, which is very annoying.
I have code which is fired in the form open event which iterates through the controls and determines whether they are a label or a textbox before resizing them to a size which is not visible - the code will eventually reposition the boxes etc but this is just the first step.
What can I do to prevent the the flickering of controls as they are enabled/disabled en mass?
Thanks
