    Is it possible to use the text window to inform user of the progress of something?

  2. Hi,

    I send text to the command line in one of my programs which takes a long
    time to run.
    The text alternately draws the characters - / - \ - / - \ - etc. so it
    looks like a slowly rotating bar.

    I've set it up to change every 50 items in a process which may deal with
    thousands of items.

    I ended up using this:

    ' Update progress to user
    ThisDrawing.Utility.Prompt ("Generating Spot Height: " & _
    CStr(iSpotLevel) & _
    " of " & CStr(ssObjects.Count) & vbCr)
