>I am using VFP 5. I have a timer in a toolbar that will be used to refresh the data displayed in the toolbar, this toolbar will be used as a status display for system information. The problem is that the timer doesn't seem to fire unless I click on the toolbar. The timer is enabled and works, I just have to click on it. I noticed that there are a couple of refrences hear about doing this exact thing, so I am hopeing that I am just not doing something right. Any help would be appreciated.
You can of course define the Timer independent of the ToolBar. This may not be ideal from the OOP point of view, but if it works...
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
