I think it must be brain fade or something

I have tried different things but can't seem to find a solution
I have a large table that needs manipulating

Select winstoks
Go Top
mtodo=Reccount()
mdone=0
Do Case
Case Reccount()>100000
   Set Odometer To 10000
Case Reccount()>10000
   Set Odometer To 1000
Case Reccount()>1000
   Set Odometer To 100
Otherwise
   Set Odometer To 10
Endcase
Set Talk On
Set Talk Window

Scan
   mdone=mdone+1
   Wait Window Nowait Str(mdone)+" / "+Str(mtodo)
   Do windnewpric2
   Select winstoks
Endscan

Set Talk Off
Wait Clear
Set Odometer To 100

in this case the table has 81,000 records
The problem is that it chooses to freeze the wait window factor at a random
number and it looks like the system is frozen
But in fact, it is still processing
The app in fact tells you it is "not responding" but if you leave it long
enough, it will complete normally

I've also tried this with a thermometer routine, and it does the same thing
i.e. it looks like the thermometer is frozen at a particular point so
people use the task manager to abort the routine

As a second observation, the set odometer seems to have no effect
