I can enter in it either percents or minutes and it does a pretty good conversion job (all day's work). I've got it so that it set's the timer's period to the first task's percentage of time. I press start to start the timer. I then set the window to window1.hide to hide. The idea is that a window will open when the timer fires. However this isn't happening - does the timer still go while it's parent window is hidden?

What happens if you put a breakpoint in the Timer's Action? _________________ Kem Tekinay MacTechnologies Consulting http://www.mactechnologies.com/ Need to develop, test, and refine regular expressions?
