Default Control toolbox Buttons disappear on click

Hi,

I have an excel application which uses a few buttons from the control
toolbox.

I have this weird problem where the laptop is connected to a projector, and
when any of the buttons is clicked they disappear altogether. But when the
projector is not connected to the laptop, the problem does not occur. Does
anyone have any hints.

This problem is faced by my HO, and I myself cannot see what's actually
happenning first hand.

There have been a few posts about those controls disappearing--but I don't
remember a common solution (or any real solution).

Maybe changing the zoom would help.
Maybe changing the windows display setting would help (640x480???)
Maybe a new video driver would help

If it's possible, you may want to try replacing your controls from the Control
toolbox toolbar with controls from the Forms toolbar. (Your code would have to
move and may require some rewriting, though.)

Thanks Dave.
Will try out your suggestions except for the last one. I prefer the control
toolbox controls. And the problem is arising only for a presentation.
