Yea, you can just close the form, or have a little button or something that stops the timer while you are working. Now on the subject of "the dog's thingie", I am not really sure that I want to be known as "the dog's thingie". "God" is fine, "king" is great as well. I suppose "The dog's thingie" is better than being the fire hydrant / lamp pole. ;-) John W.

I just posted saying this is only happening if I've got a form open, and that form does indeed have a timer event. So I do believe that you've hit the hypothetical nail on its symbolic head. All of which means that I'm still going to fall foul of this but at least I know how to stop it.

The timer event (and code) running causes an attempted compile of the code I am working on and the compile process does weird things. John W. Colby www.ColbyConsulting.com
