hide and seek

[ProteanBeing]

My dialog boxes will not hide. I have a main dialog box (switchboard) that the user opens other dialog boxes. When they are done with the others they should go away and display the switchboard. I can still however see the other dialog boxes behind switchboard. I've tried both hide and unload on my close button. What am I doing wrong? :bug:

Did you turn ScreenUpdating off? If so the Excel window won't redraw, so you see "ghosts" of the forms even though they have been hidden.

Have your switchboard larger than ALL the others and you won't notice :)

Or only turn off ScreenUpdating when writing to the sheet and then turn it back on. Or activate a blank sheet that is not the sheet being written to.
