    I have 2 forms..my first is borderless controlless, etc.
    when i try to use
    frmMain.visible = true
    I don't have that function
    it's on my 2nd form but not on my first.

    what property am I missing?

    I don't quite understand what you're saying. Where are you trying to use frmMain.visible = True? In form1's procedures or form2's? Are you getting an error?

    visible

    I mean when I am in frmTwo

    I can set the frmTwo.visibtl=false
    frmMain.visible = true

    when I am in frmMain
    I cannot use frmMain.visible = false or true
    I can use frmTwo = visible true or false

    I don't understand (in frmMain)
    ...the box that opens listing
    what you can do with the form(properties box)
    is limited to 6 or 7 and no visible property.

    What would create this problem

    OK, just a few more questions. Are you sure you're using a form? What are the properties that are available to you? How did you add this form to your project?

    Visible

    Sorry, left work early so I didn't see the replies.

    As for works for me...yes it works for me too in other applications but not this one.

    I will try to access it via Me.Visisble=false
    tomorrow at work.

    Actually, I never thought of the origin of the form as
    I took it from another app and re-customed it to suit
    my needs. If all else fails I'll kill it and add a new one.

    Thanks all for your help.
