>>Hi,

>>I have a form that runs a long (sometimes) loop so I want to give user ability to cancel by clicking on a button. I included DOEVENTS in the loop. And I added code to the button click() method to set a form property to a value (e.i. thisform.lCancel = .T.). But the button click never fires no matter how many times I click on this button.

I don't want user to have to press Esc key. I am trying to make it work with a click on the button only.
Thank you.
