Form Repainting

[Becks]

We are having a problem with forms repainting before we want them to.
We usually use echo combined with setting the hourglass but in this
instance, the form is repainting before echo is turned back on.

So, we change the form that the subform control is referencing and
this repaints the object on screen before the echo is changed.

We have tried using screen.repaint, form.repaint, echo etc, but none
stop the screen repainting.

Anyone any ideas?

Toggle the value of the subform control's 'visible' property? You could even
put a label behind the subform control like '... processing, please wait'
that the user would see while the subform is invisible.
