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.
