Hi,
I'm building my first Windows application using C#.
My Windows application sends newsletter to our subscribers by email. Our
newsletter is sort of "customized" so my application has to build the
newsletter for each individual subscriber before sending it out. Now the
whole newsletter sending process to all the subscribers is a very long
process and I'd like to keep my users updated throughout the whole time. I'd
like to accomplish this by having a big text box in my WinForm to display all
the progress messages. In my the various methods of my application I'll keep
updating that text box to display, for example, "Missing email address for
user ABC", "Newsletter has been sent to all New York subscribers" etc etc,
and finally "Task done" after it has finished.
Now the problem is when I run the program, it just goes into a blank and
does it's processing. All the updating messages will only be shown at the end
of the process and that defeats the whole purpose.
What can I do so that my application will keep informing the user of it's
progress?
ywb.
PS. I'll also have a ProgressBar in my WinForm and kind of fill up the bar
to reflect the progress, but I haven't got to that yet.
