I remember that issue as well. My take was to identify a scan volume and only do an update on progress so often depending on that volume. Two params in were ScanLocation <row currently on> and ScanTotalCount I would change the divisor as needed. if scanLocation/divisor = int(scanLocation/divisor) do thermBar(scanLocation, ScanTotalCount) endif Change to the divisor from 7, 21,39, 61, ... would speed up process that I wanted to take place. The visual clue to the user was just pretty icing on the cake. -- Stephen Russell 901.246-0159 cell _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/CAJidMY+XEgGZx8PoPmm6ZnHuOBEu_s242XHzi+mz=ud0de6...@mail.gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
