Thanks for the reply, it might. However, it is not clear what I do in the timer event. Should it just be a NOOP so that the event simply interrupts processing (do I even need it)? If a button click has occurred will the click event will be triggered or do I need to check something in the timer event to see if the button was clicked? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 6.5.8 for non-commercial use <http://www.pgp.com> Comment: Be sure to use my most recent key - created 6/16/03 iQA+AwUBPxqgW/34lmKmdrVUEQLQxQCgjXvWttFxS+p+xrfd56m7RBm+jGQAl3Mo Hc02Lhz7oqbeNP9k6jQnO30= =8b8P -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
