progressctrl question

[nss]

I access my statusbar embeded progressctrl as:

	(((CMainFrame*)AfxGetMainWnd())->m_wndStatusBar.m_WzdProgressCtrl).StepIt();

I want it to reflect progress as I proceed in a function which itself calls long time consuming functions, several of them. How shall I call Stepit to reflect this progress? Some of the functions belong to other classes, not my View class.

if you have time consuming functions , its good to put them in a new thread maybe you need to send a WM_PAINT or call the RedrawWindow of the progress control in order to reflect the changes made by the StepIt(), because if you have a very time consuming function in the main thread, the CPU will not process the windows messages until that function returns (i think) _______________________________ Portal Imoguia       Software Imoguia MSN:maxsnts@hotmail.com

Actually, WM_PAINT is a message you never send yourself. RedrawWindow() is the correct way to make a window repaint. --Mike-- "I'd rather you just give me a fish today, because even if you teach me how to fish, I won't do it.
