What did you use for the pause for 5 seconds. I tried it with a "Pause for
5" and still nothing from the second button, which is expected since I'm not
clicking on the "Pause for 5" popup which is modal at that point.

Sounded great to me.
I created a new form, filled it with a panel.
On the panel I put 2 buttons.
Button 1 disables the panel, pauses for 5 seconds and enables the panel.
Button 2 pops up a message box.
I press button 1 and all looks disabled.
I click button 2.
When the five seconds is up everything enables.
The button 2 message pops up

Dennis,
That won't work at the form level, but if you put a panel on the form and
put all your controls on the panel, the panel can be enabled and disabled to
effect everything in the container.

If you are disabling the form in a while loop, try running the loop with
WHILEOPT set to OFF.

On the click of a button:
1. disable the form
2. run a lengthy process (refresh a listview)
3. enable the form
We click the button and then click anywhere on the form.
Because the form is disabled, nothing on the form should respond.
When the process finishes, and the form is enabled, it responds to the bogus
clicks.
It is obvious from the appearance of the form that it is not getting
disabled.
If I trace the code, the form disables/enables correctly
Anyone know how to fix this?
