I know of two options: - change the select statements to be less time consuming - move the time consuming to a separate thread via a second executable If you want to notify the first executable, VFP 9 enables receiving windows messages. Or you can use a timer to search for a file. I've got the api process worked out if your interested. Maybe there is a third, there is a setting to change if a progress bar appears during long select statements. -- Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail.
