I have a view with a VIEW Action button. whe a user clicks on this, it opens the attachment file attached inside the selected document in the view.

Now I want a message box that should show the time left to open the attachment file. i have got big files 100MB and my users are getting impatient without the message.

Please send me some code Code if you know.

thanks

A normal messagebox or dialog cannot be used because it needs to wait for user input. You can search the forum (both this one and the R4 & R5 forum) for “progress bar”. That being said, there’s no way to predict how long it will take for a particular file to open over the network – it depends on the base bandwidth for that particular segment and the traffic conditions at the time. If users can’t wait for the file, it probably isn’t that important anyway.
