Hi

I have a busy dialog (i.e. a form with a progress bar with the
description
of what is happening in the moment) but when I have a counter on it to
show
how many events have been processed until now and I click and hold the
mouse
on title bar of the form the counter stops until I release it or move
the
mouse....

I've tryed something like OnMouseDown -> return... but it still has no
effect...

What can I do to prevent this to happen!!!

Best Regards

Use the BackgroundWorker for your "busy calculations", and update the
counter via the Invoke method.

Not sure, but perhaps in the mouse down event you can add
Application.DoEvents?
