[AccessD] On Click Event in Command button versus Label;

I've never found that to be true, Rocky, and I have used labels as light
weight "buttons" in several recent versions of Access.  What does the
declaration for the procedure look like?

Dear List:

Is there a difference in how the On Click event works for a command
button versus a label in Access 2003.

I had a form that was working with command buttons.  But the gray
command buttons are ugly.  So I substituted a label and put the code
from the command button behind the label.  

When you click this button (or label) it opens another form, makes the
calling for invisible until the called form closes:

            DoCmd.OpenForm "frmActivitiesInBed"
            Me.Visible = False
            Do While SysCmd(acSysCmdGetObjectState, acForm,
"frmActivitiesInBed") <> 0
               DoEvents
            Loop

This works real well when in a command button On Click but when it's
called in a label's On Click, the system totally hangs with 100% CPU
usage.  

Another curious symptom: If I alt-Tab away from the app window while
it's froze, and back again, it unfreezes the app.  

Does this sound familiar to anybody?
