Using lockDisplay() and unlockDisplay() works very well to stop the flashing. Thanks.
If you do update Dabo to allow the suppressing of the "Requering dataset" message, could you post something that would show how to implement that option? Thanks for the great support.

Typically, you would have the form do this to prevent any interim redrawing, but you can call it on a single control if you wish. Be sure to always call unlockDisplay() or you will end up with a very frustrated user! > 2. Can the "Requerying dataset" message be suppressed? Currently, no. That's an oversight that would be simple enough to fix. I'll try to post something tonight. --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: Dabo-users@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-users Searchable Archives: http://leafe.com/archives/search/dabo-users This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
