Help!!!
I have written quite a large program that is the front end for a piece of automated machinery, the software I have wrote to be modular, and at the moment is the control system for 10+ machines, therefore a lot of the codeing is dynamic, and creates the Controls depending on the I/O available to it..... Problem my current project has 224 I/O which means to display and manually control the Machines outputs the screen has to redraw 112 command buttons, this stops other events for up to 1 second, how can I either speed up the redraw or give priority to my core routine's?
The command buttons are mounted on a frame and the form is never unloaded, it makes no difference if I hide the form, or frame or change the Z order, it still redraws all my objects, and it takes too long.
