Where to put ?

volka #1 / 3	Where to put ? Hi, I wrote a procedure that will last approximetely 5 minutes. Now i want to show a dialog window while this function is running. First i tried to create a dialog and called it with DoModal(), but th eproblem is i can not do anything before DoModal dialog returns me. So then i decided to cretae a window then run the procedure in the windows WM_ACTIVE message but still sam problem occurs. So here is my question at last : how can i show a dialog while my procedure is runnning and then after the procedure finished up , terminate the dialog

It will simply not respoind to any buttons clicked until the procedure returns. If the procedure is in a static function, you could pass the dialog a function pointer and have it call the function with the correct arguments. Dan Evens
