pcsoft.us.windevCopyright 2026, PC SOFT24 Aug 2016 21:08:00 Z24 Aug 2016 13:55:00 ZHi All I have found out why the HTML control is not displaying on a window that is called. In this case it is because it is being called from a procedure with a timer active and is running on its own thread. So here is my situation: I need a procedure with a timer to poll a web service. If there is data on the web service it is read. Let us say three records are found there. I then need to call a window displaying these three records. Calling this window does not display the data and actually causes the app to crash when the window is exited. What would be the best way to detect that data has been collected from the web service and the window must be opened? Hope that makes sense.
