I have a timeconsuming task that is intitiated at the click of a button by the user within my access 97 database. Is there any way of continuing to browse throught the database (forms etc)while the code is still running??

Any ideas!

Thanks Arry

The concept you are asking about is called "Multi-Threading". Multi-threading is possible in Visual Basic (not easy to perform). I do not know if it is possible using Access.

Hope this helps.
