So a likely candidate for NOT using task manager might look something like this:
In addition to the form running your long winded while loop, you would launch just before that process an MDI form with a timer that you could set for maybe 5 secs or so, remembering these timers run in their own process, so there is no load against the main process. In your main process you will have your while loop include the test for a variable (let's say it's X) and when either condition of the while loop, that being the end of the process or the Variable X being set to a value prescribed in the condition of the while loop in an OR statement. include in your while loop the PROCESSMESSAGE command (look it up in Rbase Help) On your MDI form have a speed button that will set your Variable X to whatever value you have contained in the main process while loop. The PROCESSMESSAGE command should give enough breathing room in the process to acknowledge the existence of the Value of X and be able to exit the loop. Completely untested, but I have used similar constructs in the past with success.
