I put text into a textbox to let the user know the status of a multi-part process.

In several cases I will do the following:

ThisForm.TextBox_1.Value="Calculating..."

And then do a SQL...

The Update of the UI (the textbox) does not happen until after the SQL has completed its processing.

I am assuming that Windows/Foxpro considers the SQL to be higher priority and does it first (thereby making my feeble attemt to let the user know whats going on not happen)

Any comments or suggestions?
