Blinking command button

 Blinking command button

Using the code posted from Rick on May 2, I have a blinking command button
on form1.  How do I modify that code to do the following?

    When the program starts the button is blinking and remains blinking
until data is placed in a specific label.

What I would like to do is draw attention to the button only if the label is
blank.  The button activates form2 for additional information which fills
the label on form1, then form2 hides.  Retrieving data from the database
will also fill the label.  Presently, I have a msgbox pop up after certain
events occur, but would like to have the label filled in at the proper time
to avoid back tracking by the user.

It is only this one button that I want to have blinking, not all buttons.
That would drive the user bananas.

Thank you,
Jim Y

I got the answer.  It came to me after I wrote the query and thought about
it.
Thank you,
