Unexplainable lag?

Hey guys, im hoping one of u can help me out.
ive made a very very basic pong game and the coding looks perfect to me.

but when it's played, both from the form and when compiled. the paddle (pad) has a tendancy to freeze up and then reappear where it was meant to be moved to. ill put the coding below. im not sure if i will be able to get back to this site but ill try. if not would somebody be so kind as to email me their thoughts? its [Email removed by Mod for members protection from spam]. thanks very much

Dim X As Integer, Y As Integer, score As Integer, z As Integer

Const numcells = 96

You're code is a little hard to read and not indented properly and you seem to have included functions that are not really necessary or relevant to do with the paddle. If you could either attach the files/project or reedit you're post that would be better.

okay sorry, im not really much for indenting unless i have to. i'll insert the mouse movement bit here and attatch the form. thanks for the reply

Code:

---

Private Sub Form_mousemove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
pad.Left = X - pad.Width / 2  End Sub
