refresh/redraw flicker on mouse over of lable control

Hello,

I've built a data entry form for a survey database that appears to make the
entire form flicker when I mouse over anyn of the label controls.

I suspect that it has to do with the standard hyperlink function embedded
all label control, even though I am not using it. The refresh/redraw flicker
is quite annoying and distracting, making data entry on a tablet difficult
for the user.

Does anyone know what is causing this and how to get rig of it.

Many thanks in advance.

Christopher

If this is Access 2003, on Windows XP, and these labels are not sitting
directly on the form (e.g. in the page of a tab control), it is a known
issue.

For a workaround, see:
