Hi John,

One of my colleagues implied wait window nowait techique. After switching to statusbar there was a tremendeus speed advantage. So, I may suggest to use status bar instead of wait windows nowait...

If so, I would try putting a random set step on (maybe by using a RAND() function and setting the step on for a small range of numbers). If everytime you set step on it looks okay, I think maybe VFP is telling the system to refresh the screen and moving on. Because VFP is hogging system resources motoring through your routine, the system doesn't perform the refresh (screen paint) fast enough and by the time it gets around to refreshing, it does the last refresh it was sent which is several past the last one.
