I'm having a weird refresh glitch with a progressbar class I wrote where the container that houses the progress bar and supporting text will not display properly.

What will happen is a blank progress bar will pop up, followed by a long wait, and then the thing will refresh.

My debugging indicates that a network-based ADIR call is the source of the delay, but this call is unrelated to the progress bar itself (it's actually the first step that the progress bar is tracking), and it comes after increasingly explicit calls to Refresh() methods have been made on the progress bar.

Two strange characteristics that may help others clue me in:

1) If I step through the code, the thing refreshes properly.

2. If I insert a WAIT WINDOW (even one with a timeout of 0.1), the thing updates before the ADIR -- but if it's a WAIT WINDOW NOWAIT, the refresh does not happen.

Any ideas about what is keeping the draw from displaying?
