Bonnie,

The simplest thing to do is something like this:

* cmd.Click
this.Enabled = .f.
* do the thing that takes forever
this.Enabled = .t.

this will prevent the users from clicking it twice. You might also want to give them some progress display to let them know that the process is proceeding.

>I have a command button on a form and my users are double clicking on it instead of the standard one click. The form executes some actions because of the second click and I want to disable this. Is there a way to throw out the second mouse click when it is pressed on a command button?
