Probably you try to use Form->Visible inside an Form->OnShow or Form->OnHide 
event ?

Sometimes I've same problem (error) with one my application, but I've to 
call the winapi ShowWindow(Application->Handle, SW_HIDE), to show/hide the 
mainform button-window in the start-bar area, because in that case, my app 
is iconified on the icontray and MainForm is not showed until a doubleclick 
on the trayicon.

To solve try to check your code in the OnShow - OnHide Form event ... I 
think you can start from here.

If you discover something of intresting let know us!

Bye,
Steve
