Reply to: RE>>[FB] slow or no mouse clicks Hey Al thanks! One thing I forgot to put in my first message, I assume when using HANDLEEVENTS you should not use TIMER ON as well? If so how do I control turning the timer on and off? I really do not want the TIMER option running all the time!

Would anyone have any advice on what >my problem might be? 1. Make sure you don't have any BREAK ONs. 2. Make sure you don't call FLUSHEVENTS anywhere. 3. If you use HANDLEEVENTS, don't use DIALOG ON, MOUSE ON, etc. HANDLEEVENTS does that for you. 4. Check some of your dialog and mouse code to make sure the program isn't getting held up there for a while such as waiting for mouse movement, waiting for button down, any long loops. 5. Check how your windows are getting refreshed. If you have overlapping windows, your program may be continuosly calling refresh events depending on your code.
