Hi there, C++ guru's out on parole (suspended sentence) after being
nicked, for threatening the poor Java programmer.

I opened a parentesis using delphi these last couple of weeks - the
absence of my questions is thus explained.  Easy stuff, Delphi.

Now I've returned to the VC++ (6.0) realm.

I have the following problem : I have a simple dialog, with a static
control (frame) on it and a text label 'Please Wait', and I have a
progress bar control.  I lauch this simple dialog (modeless) and while
I am doing my computation in a loop, I am calling StepIt() to increase
the progress bar state.

Everything works fine, if not for the very annoying feature, that the
static controls are not visible while I am increasing the progress
bar...any ideas why this is so, and how should I turn this behaviour
off ?

Cheers
And Thanks for the help

Before you buy.

JP here again - amazing! Amusing!
Force a redraw of your static, Windows has decided that it will not allocate
any time for refreshes of the little {*filter*}.
GetDlgItem(IDC_STATIC_WHATEVER)->RedrawWindow just before you start your
processing will do nicely.
And I have never touched a single hair on a Java programmer's head. Haven't
seen one except myself, actually.
