need a user dialog screen update while code is running to show some messages

[MarioRindfleisch]

Hi all,

I do some data analyzing in a script. These job needs several minutes, so i want to show in an text box some informations abaut the state of the progress.

Writing some text from script in a dialog box is not the problem. Only the sreen updating on runtime doesn't work.

did somebody have a idea to solve this problem?

thanks

Hi MarioRindfleisch,

You need a non-modal dialog box for this. Here is an example:

dim iLoop

for iLoop = 1 to 5
  call MsgBoxDisp("My Text " & str(iLoop), "MB_NOBUTTON",,,, true)
  call pause(3)
next

call MsgBoxCancel

This is also possible for SUD dialogs. In this case, please have a look at the DIAdem help for “SUDDlgCreate”.

Greetings

Walter
