I'm going to be watching this post and I hope you get a good response because I had the same problem. My solution is klunky but it worked for me. I'd certainly think that there's a better way...But, here's what I did. I had my VB code write an entry to the registry. Just a flag that I set to "0". Then, in my MNL and other routines that tried to load, I had them check that setting, and bypass whatever they were trying to do until the value became "1". Then once everything ran it's course and my VB finished up, I had the code set the value to "1" and this time when the drawing opened, the other routines could do their thing.
Hope this helps, or at least sparks another idea,
Guy
