No! sorry not to be clear on this. The progress bars aren't
displaying, however, this process (as shown in my code) takes longer than if I
did the same tasks manually.
Furthermore, if I bring another program window into focus over MI, the
process in my example either stops (as indicated in the first part of this
thread) or slows down even more.

You imply that at some point during the execution Progress
Bars are displaying?
At which point?

glad this came back up. I was unclear about something in th Mapbasic UG
and Ref guide.
Are
there certain commands that will cause ProgressBars to automatically be
re-enstated without issueing "Set ProgressBars On"?
For
instance, if I "Set Progressbars Off", can a "Commit Table" command reset or
turn "Set ProgressBars Off" back to "On"?
For
example, here's a snippet of an MB I use to refresh a table I regularly
"re"geocode, of about 40k records.
In
order to try and speed up the process, I've set progressbars off, redraw off and
drop the index on any indexed fields:
Set Progressbars Off
Set map redraw off drop index MYTABLE (FIELD1) drop index MYTABLE (FIELD2) drop index MYTABLE (FIELD3) ' The following line deletes the graphic objects in the selection Delete Object From MYTABLE ' The following line Saves the table Commit Table MYTABLE ' The following line packs both graphics and data of the table Pack Table MYTABLE Graphic Data 'The following lines rebuilds the index of the specified columns Create Index On MYTABLE (FIELD1) Create Index On MYTABLE (FIELD2) Create Index On MYTABLE (FIELD3) Set map redraw On Set Progressbars On So, is the "Commit" or "Pack table" statements turning progress
bars back on?
The above takes far more time programattically
than manually and requires me to nurse Mapinfo the whole time by
keeping it in front.
Thanks,
David

Submitted a similar request myself recently . You need to
disable Progress Bars: with "Set ProgressBars Off".

All, I am sure this has been asked before
but here goes… I have program that runs fine, but when I start using another
program (ie move the active window) mapinfo appears to halt. When I make the
mapinfo window active again it continues to process files. Any ideas how
to make it run while using another application? Joe
