Thanks for all the suggestions.
The problem with the Progress component is that either it displays only one
line (the current subtask) or it clutters the screen with lots of irrelevant
(for my purposes) progress bars. Each step in the process will take a minimal
amount of time, but as what it’s
Jeremy,
Progress Component
it would look something like this:
Open progress window("Contacting Server...")
contact_server-Method
Update Progress window("Signing in...")
signin_method
Update Progress window("Getting obligations...")
get_obligation_method
Update Progress window("Submitting Data..."
ONLY sensible solution:
Just use the 4D Progress Component!
Everything else is just reinventing the wheel for nothing, an utter waste of
time.
Pass the process id variable to whatever process needs to update it and Bob's
your uncle.

Hi Jeremy
I start a new process <>NewProcess and open a window with a text variable,
vProgress, on a form.
When ever I want a new message displayed I Do
<>Message:= "Hello World"+char(13)
Call Process(New Process)
Then in the form method for New Process I do
IF(Form event = on outside call)
vProgre
v17. I’d not looked at the component; my memory is that it provides a progress
bar, which isn’t really what I want (I have my own component to do that). I
just want line-by-line text feedback, with each line remaining visible as new
lines are added.

I’d like to give feedback about the process of a multi-step task - something
like
Contacting server…
Signing in…
Getting obligations…
Submitting data…
Done.
appearing one line at a time.
Updating a text field in my process’s own window won’t work, as I don’t leave
the process and no form event
