Default TextBox.Visible = True ... not working

Hi there,
I use the code below to show some textboxes and images while I play a sound
( explaining these images)... the problem that I can't solve is that
sometimes the code works and sometimes not. The sounds are correct all the
time but sometimes after the first textbox the other objects remain
invisible. At the end the first textbox turn invisible so that part works
too.
I patched this together from the net and my VBA is not good enough to single
out the mistake here and I would appreciate any help.

Thank you,
Özgür

Hi
Try putting in some "DoEvents" lines after making the buttons visible.
This often sorts out this kind of graphics updating problem. I didn't
look at your code in detail though, so it may be something else!
regards
Paul

e.g.
TextBox2.Visible = True
DoEvents
