Hi Rick,

I am still in the dark as to your explaination regarding multiple calls blocking. Would you be kind enough to elaborate with some simple examples.

Thanks.

Regards,
Kueh.

>>VFP will block multiple calls to the same method, until previous calls have completed. So, if you have a routine that takes 1 second to run, and you call it every 1.5 seconds, you'll be ok. But, if you have a routine that takes 5 minutes to run, the first call will execute, but subesquent calls will wait in queue. Fixing this is a high priority for the Fox team.
