You could change the cursor to an hourglass to indicate the processing ?

Subject: [vbhelp] TEXTBOX UPDATE
Hello all, it's your annoying groupie again.
I have a problem with the textbox being updated properly. What
I mean is, for instance, a button is pressed to begin a process.
When this button is pressed I change the cursor, send progress info
such as "Working on Item#...", and set the visible property of the
button control to false.
The problem is none of these things are visibly apparent until
the program is done processing data. It looks like the program locks
up until it's done, then all the things that should have happened
when the button was first pressed happen at once when it is finished.
So far the only way I have figured out to update the form is to
pop up msgbox's, which is annoying and slows the process.
Any ideas? Would an extra form.show command help? I can't make
a progress bar either because it doesn't show progress until it's
already done.
