1. Not responding problem.
When I my begin on_click procedure, my progie goes through a lengthy bit
of
"for.....end for code." during this time the buttons on my little
display pannel "cancel", "close", etc.. become inactive and the window
stops responding. (Hence the the procedure is still actualy running. as
the output display is still being updated.)
How can I set up this on_click procedure so that the main window stays
active and the buttons like "cancel" etc.. will function.
If anyone can help please reply, thxs.

call doEvents(0) within the loop. Your cancel button (etc) should set
a flag which causes the loop to exit. eg (untested code):
integer CancelKeyed
procedure onClick(..)
CancelKeyed=0
for
<lots of code>
doEvents(0)
if CancelKeyed then exit
end for
end procedure
procedure onCancel(..)
CancelKeyed=1
end procedure

Throw in some doEvents(0) in your for loop.
