Hi Kay, Actually never thought of that (doh!) Beeps in the updateme handler fire. - so the handler is getting the message Breakpoints in updateme as well as following "send" in main routine show the text appearing in the SPLASH stack.
So, the messages are being sent. The updateme handler is being run (BEEP was sounded) The field will update, WHEN a breakpoint is hit. The field does not update (except for a flash just at the very end of the main handler) when no breakpoints are present. placing the update message in the message box (put "blah blah blah") opens the message box but does NOT update it. So from all this I can see that the messages are being passed, the screen is simply not updating. -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/updating-progress-to-user-during-long-handler-tp4701326p4701491.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
