How to Display a Message and Continue Running
Keywords: 	 display message while processing in background continue
Question:
I am not sure if this has already been asked/answered. Can you display a message on the screen yet continue to run the code? Some samples would be like: Displaying a message that says "One moment, processing..." and when the processing is done, close the display or display something else.
Answer:
BoxOpen("Testing",0)

for xx=1 to 20

   BoxText(TimeYmdHms())

next

BoxShut()

Message("All","Doned")
