Me.Hide()frmDetails.ShowDialog() The only way I have provided to close this dialog is via the "X" button. If frmDetails is just closed as normal, there is no visual problem (no repainting) with the main form. Now, I add this code to the the FormClosing event in the dialog, frmDetails: If e.CloseReason = CloseReason.UserClosing Then e.Cancel = True Me.Hide() End If In this case, the dialog hides, but in the process there is unacceptable amount of repainting on the main form. A portion of the top right client area on the main form turns transparent for an instant showing portions of any underlying app that may be present. I gather that this transparency business is probably causing the repainting. Does anyone know if the Hide method has a bug? Better method? Workaround? Gene Im new to vb.. but have you tried instead of doing the Me.Hide() to just try
to set the Opacity of the form to 0 first? see if that work around solves ur display issue - then close the form? -I have not had that happen to me at all with my Dialog forms.

It now appears that the problem is being caused by a 3rd party control in use in this particular app. If I temporarily remove it, the problem goes away, so I'm now checking with the control vendor on this issue.
