Maybe you can enqueue a nilEvent every second or so while you are in your
form's event handler.  I am assuming that you are using FrmDoDialog().  Add
the initial nilEvent during the first frmUpdateEvent.  And perhaps sleep for
half-second or so after you respond to each subsequent nilEvent.  Unless you
can figure out how to change the EvtGetEvent timeout in FrmDoDialog().  Or I
guess you could just do your own event loop and not use FrmDoDialog(). 
Sorry, I'm new at this :)
