Text Display Delayed Problem

| Hi,
When I click "Go" to start generating a report, I want to show a window with
a label showing a message "Processing data, please wait!"
This window for message is set to visible=.F. as default. On clicking "Go",
the first thing I do is to make visible=.T., and then retrieve data from the
server.
The problem is that, the message "Processing data, please wait!" does not
show-up, until it is almost the end of the processing. e.g. if it takes 5
seconds to generate the report, the message only shows when it is 4.5
seconds.
What did I do wrong? Any idea?
I'm using VFP 8, Win 2000.

Try adding a DOEVENTS command just before you generate the report.
