ok, I think maybe I'm closer, but I'm not sure.

I have a certain point in the program where the timer needs to execute and the program itself has to basically pause until a condition is set by the timer.

so I have
variableend = false
timer1.interval = 500
do while variableend = false
loop



and I have

timer1_timer()
do stuff in here
when conditions are met, set variableend = true


But the timer1 statements are not executing. I placed a msgbox pop-up in there and it's not appearing, instead the application now just locks...


Is this something to do with the do while loop that I have?

Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it.
