Hello,
I have an unbound form which host a tab control with 6 pages.
On any of this pages there are many controls eache of them unbound and with
some labels NOT joined to the controls that will receive data (this is due to
the need to design the form to look like the paper form).
In form view I noticed that when the mouse-cursor goes over the un-joined
labels all of them flicker a bit ( quaite a lot... I should say!). This
doesn't happen for labels joint to controls (joint measn with their parent
property setted).
Is this 'safe'? Or can lead to misfunctioning?... other than to the use of
lenses in a while (!)

Thanks in advance,
Rocco
