Flickering Screen - Access 2003

[karen]

I developed a robust Access 2000 application which is now being used in
Access 2003.

Out of all the screens in the system, one flickers very badly. The form
with the flickering screen has 11 tabs. The problem is in the very
first tab.

I've read that this is a bug associated with non-bound labels. This
doesn't seem correct to me as every single one of my forms contain
non-bound labels, but only one screen has a problem.

I thought it might be associated with the myLabel.caption
functionality, so changed these to text boxes (there were only 3). The
screen still flickers.

Does anyone know what might be the problem?

do you have any code running behind the form? Could you post it? I'd
look for refresh type stuff. Could be it's forcing a redraw of the
screen. You can turn the screen echo off at the beginning of a
procedure and then turn it back on at the end... you won't get as
immediate an update of your screen, but you won't get insane flickering
either.

Do you have Timer Event code running behind the Form?
