Web Service consumer problem

[blondebier]

Background:

I have written an application that consumes a .net web service. It is a single form that loads that allows a user to select a range of car registrations. Once the range is selected the user can then fire these off to the web service and a valuation for the cars will be returned. This happens one at a time.

Problem:

If the range submitted off to the webservice is large, the form appears to "hang", as it will not respond until all the submissions have completed.

Question:

Is it possible to stop this from happening?

I thought multithreading might be something to look into, but I havn't much time and I need a quick solution.

If anyone has come across this problem before and has a solution I'd appreciate some pointers.

Cheers,

Francis
