redraw thing
So my Excel app has VBA code that does a long file read and update operation. This can take up to one hour. And the client wants it to show a "please wait" message while it is doing this to help assure that it isn't just hung. So I added a non-modal user form with the message. Put it up on the screen before the work starts, and unload it again after the work is done. My problem is, the form does not finish redrawing before the work starts. And by then, Excel is sucking all the CPU doing the work, so the form does not redraw. It shows an empty frame the entire time. Which just makes it look more like things have hung rather than less. So: What do folks do to show a "please wait" message during long operations? socks

Geez, the file must be 10s of kigabytes in size OR you're doing it the
slow way for whatever reason you may have against a more efficient
approach!

CListView derived class and redraw problems...
To all, I have CListView derived class and when the user tries to resize the columns, there are lines drawn on the screen very much like bar codes. I have looked around and it looks like it is a well known problem but I can not understand how to fix it. I read there is a need to change the HDN_BEGINTRACK and HDN_ENDTRACK to ON_NOTIFY. When I do that and I set breakpoints in both, I only hit the breakpoint for BEGINTRACK and never for ENDTRACK. Anyone knows how to solve this? The real problem being the need to redraw the control when the column resizing has ended. Regards, Reza "rez...

OWA using mix of machine name/FQDN, screwing things up with HTTPS
Hello, We have one particular customer whose SBS 2003 box is giving me some heartburn when it comes to setting up OWA.

The $ thing to lock cells at rows or columns
Hi group, I do know how manually modify the content of a cell so that when "pulling it" to autocomplete into further rows and columns one can lock either row or column. Like =$I$10 It is rather cumbersome though getting the $ sign where it must be. Once I knew a combination of keys that fixed that for me, but I have forgotten. And if one is optimistic enough to enter the $ sign in the help search function one is in for a reminder of who made this software. So I have to ask you guys and girls. Is there still a clever way to have the =$I$10, or has that been discarded with the ba...
