That would be great, except that this operation does not return to the event loop until it is complete. So most UI functions are not available because they require the event loop to be running. (This isn't the best way to do things, but this operation only happens the first time the app is run, and the code is so complicated already that returning to the event loop would not be a good choice.) So I'm wondering, if I just throw the form up using FrmInitForm and FrmDrawForm, will that create other events, or can it be done within one event without consequences? -- For information on using the PalmSource Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
