Hi there.
I'm new to realbasic, but not to programming in general.
I want to make a countdown timer, but for some reason, I can't get
anything to display in my static
text box. here is my code.
dim x as integer
dim xs as string
x=100
while x>0
x=x-2
xs=cstr(x)
statictext1.text=xs
statictext1.refresh
wend
Any ideas? When I do a step through, I can see the value
decrementing.
The static text needs to be explicitly told to refresh when you do
this or you won't see any visual changes until the method or event exits
