    Forms flickering in access database

    I have a form which has been set to full screen which works fine as expected..
    But I noticed that when making an entry on the form, the form flickers(looks like it refreshes or something).

    Would be glad if anyone has a fix to this.

    Probably some code you have running related to the form.

    On current event code:
    msaved = False

    Form on_load code:
    Call Docmd.GotoRecord(, , acNewRec)

    Before form update code:
    If msaved = false then
    Cancel = true

    Me.Undo
    Cancel = false

    End if


    And I used an image as the form background. Image size is 6.31kb.

    Using a colour from access seems to fix it. But I will really need that picture on the background

    I guess I have to stick to the colours in the access
