>Is there a way to make a screen refresh every minute in FPW 2.6? Are there timers in FPW2.6?
No timers but here are some suggestions...
Call the screen in a DO WHILE loop with the TIMEOUT clause!
DO WHILE .T.
DO MySScreen.SPR
ENDDO
Use the # command in the screen for the timeout clause to be inserted - look in Help.
Create a DDE SERVER with a callback into the screen SHOW GETS PROGRAM!
EG In your screen have the SHOW GETS as a separate program that gets called by the DDE server.
The DDE server has only one function in its advise and that is maybe a WAIT WINDOW "" TIMEOUT 60
or =INKEY(60,"H") (syntax?)
Or a DDE server in VFP with a timer
If you want some sample code send me an email
