            If you're talking about controls, then a VB Form can hold up to 255. BTW, is the link work safe? (Hey, ya never know. :)) Jeremy Falcon

                              I couldn't help myself. I just had to download it, install it and fire up Spy++. Belive it or not, it's not VB :) It looks like it's either Delphi or C++ Builder. The window classes are all littered with T's, i.e. TComboBox, TPanel, TThis, TThat, TTheOtherThing.... What ever it was written in... OMG :eek:
