Hi Jeremy I start a new process <>NewProcess and open a window with a text variable, vProgress, on a form. When ever I want a new message displayed I Do <>Message:= "Hello World"+char(13) Call Process(New Process) Then in the form method for New Process I do IF(Form event = on outside call) vProgress:=<>Message+vProgress end if New Messges are added at the top of the message list vProgress cheers -pm
