Hi,

I have an application that runs many things in the background. I have created form: "FRM_Status" to tell the user of what is happening.

I call the form with: DoCmd.OpenForm "FRM_Status" but when it opens and starts displaying the status, ex.: Forms!FRM_Status!txtStatus = "Deleting Table: '" & tableName & "'"

The forms background becomes invisible and you only see the status message displayed in the txtStatus. Is there any way to make the background of form "FRM_Status" appear?

Thank you!



 
Have you tried to play with the DoEvents function ?

Hope This Helps, PH.
