Hi All, 4D v17 R5 (Mac and Windows single user standalone)
I have a list box that needs to be built and available before the calculation is complete. In this case I have some searches looking for particular conditions and when found add them to the listbox. They could easily take a few seconds to I’m guessing a minute or more. The searching could span 50-60 sub searches within a 100 years of daily data (Think daily stock market data but it’s not for the stock market). So I would like a strategy: - so that list box remains available as it’s being built. - the screen is not frozen as it’s being built. - The list box fills as each row is found/added and can be seen rebuilding. I’ve seen this kind of thing in a windows app (not 4D) and I’d like to emulate the behavior. I need a strategy I’m guessing that involves another process which knows how to communicate back to this form/listbox. Is this where workers could be helpful? Does anyone have some snippets of code I could see to visualize the process? Appreciate, John… ********************************************************************** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: https://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:[email protected] **********************************************************************
