Re:

Beware - my answer was a bit tongue in cheek.

Better yet, look at Thread.Sleep(??) - basically pauses your
thread.
DoEvents() can cause re-entrancy, and should only ever be
used if you
are well aware of it's pitfalls.

Shame you can't slap some sense into the client - it's
using 100%, but
only cause nothing else is using the CPU...

Thanks - I will add that to the code. Its annoying because
the client is
just obsessed with the task manager and its not like there
actually a
performance issue.

Look up DoEvents() and use it liberally throughout your

Is there a way I can limit my program to only use up to a
maximum level
of the CPU - say 60% - Its just one client is complaining
that an
application (VB.NET) is taking up 100% of CPU when loading.
