Jason,
Any reason not to put a label in the picture box and have the label hold
the text?

*****ORIGINAL MESSAGE*****
I have a picturebox in the form that display data using (i.e.
picture1.print "Hello"). Whenever I switch to other application (i.e.
IE, Word, etc.) & come back to the VB app, the data in the picturebox
disappeared. Does anyone know how to keep the data from disappearing?
