Hi
I found a circular progress control over at sourceforge that I wanted to use in a project. I am trying to make a pacifier control that tells the user that things are still working (although we are waiting on a long web service call)
Anyway, I have been using this control, but what I found was that when the WS call is made the control (and essentially the whole ui) freezes up. I reasoned that it was a threading issue, so I modified the control to be multithreaded, and based the internal timer on a separate thread & used a delegate sub for the trigger. The odd thing is, is that this approach didnt work.
Does anyone know how I can force a refresh of a control when my WS call is being made? ps. "DoEvents" didnt work either
Thanks alot
