textbox shows desktop background as it is loading...ugly

[MikeA]

Hi!
How do I suppress the desktop background showing through textboxes while the
form is loading?
This is really ugly. The textboxes look transparent while form is loading.

Thanks
Mike

This occurs on some slow machines and forms with many controls on them,
but it should only occur when the form is shown for the first time.
