How to force Notes client GUI to refresh display during script processing

Hello everyone.I have this issue for ages, with all Notes versions so far.

When a user launches an action trigerring a long lotus-script process on the Notes client, the focus on the Notes window is very often lost.

The Notes window becomes blank, and even the status bar does not refresh anymore until the script process is over.

Is there a way to force regular Notes client display refresh so that users do not have the impression their Client has crashed?

Thanks in advance for any answer provided.

Regards,

Thierry.

Dim ws As New notesuiworkspace Dim uidoc As notesuidocument

Set uidoc= ws.currentdocument

Call uidoc.Refresh

I tend to just use the Print command, which is especially useful in a loop where you can print a field value which keeps changing, or even just count up, and have a total number which you work out first.

The issue is that i use print command to display progress percentage in Status bar.

But the display freezes very often, despite all my tries to do uiworkspace refreshes…
