Hi Greg, When you say "locks up" do you mean lock up the entire application or does that window just not update? If the application is locked up could you dump the stack trace and send it in? This is described here: http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Programming/Stacktrace/ For windows just do: "To generate a stack trace on Windows 95, or Windows NT platforms, enter the key sequence <ctrl><break> in the window where the Java program is running, or click the Close button on the window." If its a matter of the display not being active or drawn - I have occasionally seen this and believe that its from a graphics card issue. Don is traveling this week but I'm sure he'll chime in (?) -Jeff Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: EYL-939857 Department: Support IDV Priority: Normal Status: Open
