display the records processed on line

[ozdemirozgur]

Hi,

I have a Do While loop, and i want to show the line number of the current record. Something like this

Do While not employees.eof

msgbox employees.!inenumber

employees.movenext
loop


however, in the code abiove, system stops and ask user to clisk the ok button. I rather prefer to show the all the line numbers during the process without asking anything to users just to show them the line number. Is there any other command similar to msgbox to show the line numbers like flowing numbers on the screen.

thanks

See if SysCmd does what you want.

Hi,

it seems, SysCmd is used to show the progress and a bit complicated. I just need to dislay the employee number when it is progressed. Because i have a do while loop, then it will be a quick flowing of numbers on the screen. is there any easy way of doing it ?

thanks

Well, SysCmd can "display a progress meter or optional specified text in the status bar", so your employee number can be the specified text. Unless your process is pretty slow, they're going to speed by faster than the user can really follow anyway.
