I'm trying to get a subroutine to run AFTER the form has completed the Form_Load routine because my routine makes changes to the objects on the form and they aren't visible until the form has completed the Form_Load routine. I'd rather not use a timer to kick it off. Any Suggestion? -Chris

Running a routine after form has loaded
Form_Activate
or... at the end of Form_Load....
Visible=True Call MySubroutine

Running a routine after form has loaded
You could try it in Form_Activate. Form_Activate fires after Form_Load and also fires every time you click on the form when it does NOT have focus (some other form has focus). Thus, you need to use a one-time switch in Form_Activate to only run your code the first time Form_Activate fires (after the Form_Load) and not thereafter.
