[Gambas-user] Refresh question

[Davide Di Buduo]

Many thanks, 
the result was absolutely pefect .. it seems that WAIT acts like DOEVENTS 
under VB ... (also, disabling the button that calls my event i prevent the 
recursive call you've warned me)

I've noticed a strange behavior with the ColumnClick event of the ColumnView 
component:
first of all the event isn't fired when, after having the view filled, I click 
the column headers; then if I click some cell in the view the event is fired  
and finally also if i click a column header the event starts ...
I don't know if i've explained well the problem, hope so :-)
Regards,
Davide.
