If the terminal isn't used, but a local of the same direction is, then you should delete the local and use the terminal. The terminal is the primary, built-in access to the data of the control. Use it over locals. Also try to use a minimum of locals as more locals open up the possibility of more race conditions. To update a progress bar on another panel, use a control reference's value property. Greg McKaskle
