In doing this you can easily cause your UI to become unresponsive. You should try to make sure that your nilEvent processing isn't too time intensive or your UI will suffer.

Yes, you can trap the nil event in the AppEvent loop along with some other condition, such that the particular condition takes place only where you intend it to happen. Do trap the nilevent along with another condition, above the SysHandleEvent() and call your function This should process simultaneous operations. > Can any one tell me how to do that .. or any alternatives..? There are no any "standard" alternatives, as far as i know.
