Well, once again I've hit my limit....
I use a custom form for LPub's main form. I also use a simple custom form for
the Cancel window that contains two buttons.
When LPub is processing something that takes a long time, it does
CanceForm->Show(). When LPub finishes procesing it does a CancelForm->Close().
This works fine as long as the main form is not minimized. I've tried things
like waiting until the main form is active before issuing Close(). No joy. I
also tried having the CancelForm->Close(), when the CancelForm activates, and
the main form is done processing. No joy.
I'm doing nothing fancy. No CloseQuery or anything....
Anyone have ideas? I'm not very knowledgable about Delphi/C++ Builder.
