Let me try to explain what I am looking for...

I need to display a dialog box when user click on a 'Start' button of another dialog box. Also along with displaying, I need to invoke a lengthy time consuming processs to initiate automatically in the code of the displayed dialog box. The code inside the dialog box has 'DoEvents' to display statistics of the lengthy run.

I have put the code in the Load function of the dialogbox. Then what is happening the dialog box is not displayed until the code is executed completely defeating my purpose of the dialog box where I inteded to show some statistics.

Now I have to put another button the displayed box and code inside that. Then I have to click it to invoke the lenghty code.

Any geek out there to help me?
