Barry, Make a hidden button (I'll call it "BS") that sits in your progress window with a script that has the following in it:
on mouseDown end mouseDown on mouseUp end mouseUp Then, call your progress window which will do this on its openCard: insert script of btn "BS" into front Open your progress bar (as a palette or toplevel stack so it doesn't block scripts), and then when it is over, in the closeStack handler execute: remove script of btn "BS" from front This should do it...
