Hey, I have a frame on my HTML layout that displays output from a fex when the HTML program is run. The fex takes a few seconds to run and I would like to have a message that says "Loading..." in the frame while the fex is running in the background. Anybody done this before? Thanks!This message has been edited. Last edited by: Mark1,

If you do a search on the forum for this, I'm sure you'll find more than enough threads. So, yes, someone has done this before. And it is not really very hard to do either.

you'll launch a fex that contains a redirect statement, the redirect executes the report, whereas the launched fex contains a 'wait' statement. Do you want an example?
-* take these parms from your inputscreen or wherever you get them
-DEFAULT &VALUE2 = 'SOMEVALUE';
-DEFAULT &DISPLAYUSER = 'you';
-*
