Sorry, could you tell with a bit more of detail what those ele-
ments are that cause you trouble? There's no widget that I would
call list (is it a browser) and it, of course, also would be
interesting to know which other object types are showing this
behaviour. Also, when you say "blink" are you talking about
some short-timed flickering or some long delays (I guess what
you see is some delays in the redraw of an object).

I am not sure yet if I understand what the problem is, so I would
prefer not to start making suggestions;-)

Can you tell which version of XForms you are using? If you keel
the 'Alt' key pressed down and then click with the middle mouse
button into one of the programs windows a box should pop up
with information about the version of the library. I'm asking
since I guess that on the original machine a rather ancient
version hae been used and in the mean time a number of changes
have been done that might be responsible for the "blinking".

                              Best regards, Jens
