Hi,
You have the choice in using Application.Echo (see help file), but I think there can still be
some flickering. Another solution is to use the API LockWindowUpdate... but locking the update of
a window is always a potential problem: if the user sees no activity, he/she may think your
application is frozen, and decide to reboot the PC. At least, ALWAYS use error handling to get
back into an unfrozen mode...
Private Declare Function LockWindowUpdate Lib "user32" Alias "LockWindowUpdate" (ByVal hwndLock As
Long) As Long
Use:
LockWindowUpdate 0 'to unfreeze
LockWindowUpdate Application.hWndAccessApp ' to freeze Access window update
Hoping it may help,
