Dear Stoyo,

I have one major critical problem.

I load the fcx chart string from the sql database, and i set the graphics engine as GDIplus, then when i load the chart for the first time, everything goes well ,
BUT when i unload the form and reload it i used to get the error message IFlowChart failed (or something like this) and the chart never loaded.

but now the same scenario happens but without the error message just the whole application crashes and the whole VB6 is closed wihout any error message.

Note: if i changed the graphics engine to Classic, nothing of these problems happens.

So how can i fix that problem?

2) Also there is another problem (a bit minor):
it is that when i adjust the behavior as DoNothing and the AllowInplaceEdit for the FCXChart as false, i still can do inplace edit for boxes even if these boxes are originally locked!
also i can still do inplace edit for locked boxes (at any behavior)!!!

I think i tried the Graphics shut down before but it doesn't help.
but i used to do it in the form_unload event.

Is there any best practice in doing that, i mean whether to put the code within the QueryUnload or terminate events or what?

The child form is unloaded but the problem is still there.
Also this error msg somtimes happens with for unknown reasons while saving as a bitmab.

So how can I prevent the program crash?

Also what do u think is the reason for the fcx fail msg ?
