>>Hi,

>>My pageframe has two pages, one that lets the user choose reports to be printed and the a second with information that has to be computed. The problem is that it takes some time to compute the information on page 2. The question is how do I (1) activate page 2 _before_ I start the computation, (2) do the computation and (3) display the computation, all with only one click of the user.

>>I've tried
>>(1) ...Page2.activate
>>(2) a Compute button click that ...ActivePage=2.

>>In both I refresh the screen and the page (unlock and lockscreen), but the screen is frozen on page 1 until my computation is finished.

Jim, I tried almost exactly that, but couldn't get the tab to switch to the new page, even though the controls appeared. Strange.
