How can you lock or Freeze or Greyout everything on a form until it is finished doing whatever..?

buttonclick

msgbox

freeze

update data

unfreeze

that order ???

Thanks Scott

@SW_DISABLE = Disables the window

@SW_ENABLE = Enables the window

So

GUISetState(@SW_Disable)
   do whatever
GUISetState(@SW_Enable)

Thats what I thought ... can't get it to go it just hangs at button click...

???

Your right because the window is disabled so it won't accept the input. Try posting the GUI portion of your code as well as the MsgLoop (or at least enough to replicate the issue).

If $nMsg = $Button2 Then

;msgbox(0,"Update in Progress.","Please wait while the Database is being updated.")

GUISetState(@SW_DISABLE)

;msgbox(0,"update","")

GUICtrlSetData($Combo1, "")

Call("update") ; Query

GUISetState(@SW_ENABLE)

Else

EndIf

I would say No bug. We would have to see more code to say exactly why though.
