    Help Updating Taskbar

    Hi,
    I have a long process where I use a progressbar and update the caption of
    the form with the % complete.The problem is that the caption in the taskbar
    does not get updated. I can get it done by hiding and showing the form but
    the form then flickers. If the form is minimized it also does not update.
    Hope someone can help.
    Thanks
    Basil

      Does Me.Refresh work?

              Refresh might not work for the window caption, since the caption is not part of
              the "client" area of the window.

              Try the old
              Me.Caption = "21.28% complete..."
              DoEvents

              where DoEvents gives the system a chance to catch up with you.
