map problem URGENT

hey folks

i have some problems with my map. using dx to draw it inside a window.
but whenever i put a form over my map the map draws over a form

i have search the forums and i came up with this code:

Code:

---

Private Sub Display_Paint()
    If StrMatch(ActiveControl.Name, Display.Name) Then
        Call DrawMap(Map) 'drawmap works perfectly
    End If
End Sub

Public Function StrMatch(Str1 As String, Str2 As String) As Boolean
    If LenB(Str1) = LenB(Str2) Then
        If InStr(1, Str1, Str2, vbTextCompare) Then
            Let StrMatch = True
        End If
    End If
End Function

I happen to be one of the DirectX experts here on VBForums. It would help a lot if you uploaded your project so I can help you. Also you won't get much help with this problem in the Classic Visual Basic section on VBForums because 99% of those people never used or hardly ever used DirectX. The Games and Graphics Programming section on the other hand you will get help because besides me, people like Halsafar, NoteMe, and Electroman just to name a few are experts at DirectX. So you can post the same question in there with an upload of your project as well as an upload here if you want.
