<http://www.google.com/search?q=beginModalSessionForWindow+site:developer.apple.com> (The "site:developer.apple.com" is a handy trick.) <http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/WinPanel/Concepts/UsingModalWindows.html> <http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Reference/ApplicationKit/Classes/NSApplication_Class/Reference/Reference.html> I think it would be better to refer to specific parts of the docs that are not clear than to ask a general "what will happen" question. That said, I wonder if anyone knows of a blog entry or Apple example that specifically shows how to display progress in a modal window or sheet. --Andy _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
