Unsteady graphics

[MPrestonf12]

in my pong game I need to be able to move the paddle so I used
picpaddle.move X,y ' under the mouse move sub.
When you move the paddle quickly across the screen it seems to get "stuck" and then move. Can i use bitblt and will it be smoother?

Yes, BitBlt is a better approach.

If you're using BitBlt, then there will be enough extra cycles to make double-buffering possible. Although for maximum speed, use DirectDraw.
