I have a form that needs to update data on open. This
takes some time. When the user opens this form by
clicking a command button on a switchboard, I would like
to display a second form, the detail section of which
carries a label reading, "Please wait while I update the
records...". The idea is for this second form to
display, run a query that updates the data, then open the
input form and close.
Problem is, as soon as the query engages, the render
stops. The user sees the border of this "please wait"
window, then sees the input form when the query is
finished. Never sees the detail section with the
message...
Is there another method for this that I can use? How
would I hold off running the query until this simple
message form renders?
Thanks,
