Hi All

Is it possible to 'freeze the screen' while it performs some functions on a
form, so that when it unfreezes, all the operations are complete.

Just looks messy at the moment and i'm wondering if its possible to do
this??

Thanks In Advance

Application.Echo False should turn the painting off, Application.Echo True
will turn it back on.

Click to expand...

Application Echo False
(do stuff)
Application.Echo True

YOU MUST include an Error trap and repeat the Application.Echo True line in
the error handler or else the non-updating of the screen will "stick" until
the user restarts the app whenever an error prevents the normal line from
executing.
