[Solved] Reload MainForm after a 5 Minutes

Post by Biber51966 »

Hi there,
I want to reload the Mainform of my database every 5 Minutes.
Is there a way to do so?
Thx for help.

Base does not provide a function like that, and probably for good reason. Imagine how annoying it would be if a user was stepping through a long list of rows, or entering items on a invoice and the database automatically reloads, returning the cursor to the first record on MainForm!

A reload can be attached to a push button control, or with a macro to an event on a form control.

Hi there,

first, sorry for the crossposting. My bad.
Second, hopefully we found a solution for my problem in the german Forum.

So please don't lose any more braincells here because of me. :)

Thx.
