Hi Steve,

Have you tried refreshing the textbox after you update it's value but before you run the processing program?

>I have a timer on my form that runs a procedure(program). The timer looks in a table to get a record then runs the program if there is a record to act on. The table can have many records at any time. The timer only handles one at a time. What I would like to do is have the timer put into a textbox on the form what record it is processing. When I put this code above to Do command the Do command is ran before the textbox is populated.
